I haven't done any serious XSL work in years, so now I'm struggling with very basic things.
I don't want to change my XML or use keys, but I just to be able to pull the name of a State given the ID of the state.
My Orders data includes an ID for State, so I want to grab the Name of the state from the States node...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="
http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" encoding="UTF-8"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<sqdata>
<xsl:for-each select="//Orders/row">
<record_number>
<xsl:value-of select="record_number"/>
</record_number>
<xsl:apply-templates select="Bill_State_or_Province"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</sqdata>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Bill_State_or_Province">
<State_or_Province><xsl:value-of select="//States/row[record_number=.]/name"/></State_or_Province>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Oops! I posed too soon. Basically I get nothing for <State_or_Province>. It's just an empty node set.
What's wrong with my thinking here? I dont' understand why this doesn't work.
