Variables in select attributes

[WCB <WCBorg at LeapLink dot com>]

I'm trying to do something like this:

<xsl:for-each select="//*">
    <TR>
       <TD>
          <xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
       </TD>
       <TD>
          <xsl:variable name="curr_name">
             <xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
          </xsl:variable>
          <xsl:value-of select="count(//$curr_name)"/>
          <xsl:value-of select="$curr_name"/>
       </TD>
    </TR>
</xsl:for-each>

Seems pretty straight forward.  I've tried lots of variations using [] and 
{}.  Apparently, node matching patterns are more subtle than I 
thought.  Any help would be appreciated.
