I'm trying to use variable items in XSL, but when I use xsl:value-of, the output doesn't show up in Internet Explorer.

<xsl:variable name="myArray">
<xsl:for-each select="StagingInformation/MachineInformation">
<item><xsl:value-of select="ID"/></item>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:variable>

##### This line below is my test that won't work

<xsl:value-of select="$myArray/item[2]"/>

##### (These comments are not in code)
##### end

<xsl:for-each select="myArray/item">
<xsl:variable name="count1">position()</xsl:variable>
<xsl:for-each select="myArray/item">
<xsl:variable name="count2">position()</xsl:variable>
<xsl:if test="$myArray/item[$count1] = $myArray/item[$count1]"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:for-each>

Can anyone help?

Please before posting search the forum, most likely someone already asked a similar question.

Search for the word duplicates, there are many examples.

Hope this helps
