need a substitue for the current() function


Greetings All,

we are using the xalan processor on an AS400 at work, and for some reason it 
seems to choke everytime I use the current() function.

i.e. <xsl:for-each select="//Ledger_Entry[.//Long_Name=current()]">

Does anyone know how to write a "longhand" version of the current() function 
which will return a node-set that has the current node as its only member?

my source doc(in case it's needed), looks like the following:

<accountelement>
  <Ledger_Element>
  <Number_of_Entries>290</Number_of_Entries>
   <Ledger_Entry>
   <Transaction_Description>PURCHASE</Transaction_Description>
   <Long_Name>AIMS ASSET ALLOCATION PROGRAM/IMS</Long_Name>
   <Quantity>0</Quantity>
   <Amount>-150000.00</Amount>
   <Trade_Date>07/28/1997</Trade_Date>
  </Ledger_Entry>

Thanks in advance for any assistance forthcoming.
