Re: Variable in XPath...
> The $node_id contains the exact node name.
I suspect you have the wrong model of what's happening.
It's a bit hard to tell as you didn't show th eformat of either of your
input files, but I guess
config_doc.xml
looks like
<config>
<nodename>xxx</nodename>
</config>
if so then $node_id contains a single element node (nodename)
so
<xsl:for-each select="$node_id">
will select that node (in config_doc.xml, not any nodes in the original
document)
I think perhaps you want to select a node in the original document with
name given by the config file, but that's
<xsl:for-each select="//*[name()=$node_id]">
