Re: [xsl] Value of variable not appearing in the <xsl:otherwise> of xml:choose

Liam,

I tried as="xs:string” and the attribute shortcut you indicated, but got the 
same empty result. 
As noted in my response to my own query, I changed the for-each-group() to 
group-starting-with, which put parts 2 and 3 in the same xsl:when part of the 
xsl:choose, allowing me to access the variable.

Does it  work if you rewrite this as

<xsl:variable name="part3ID" as="xs:string"
 select="current-
group()[self::div[@class='analyze_visual']]/@nextExposID" />

and


                <part num="3">
                    <xsl:attribute name=“globalNum">
                        <xsl:value-of select="$part3ID"/>
                    </xsl:attribute>

as

<part num="3" globalNum="{$part3ID}">

?


When you put content inside a variable without an assigned type, it
becomes a document with a document node.
