I tried it as u can see from the example but for some reason its not showing
in IE5 if I import the xsl file with xsl:variables.But if I give the
xsl:variable in one file,I mean there is only one xsl file,it's working.

David,I guess Im using the xsl namespace.Unless if I havent understood
totally what is namespace,I guess Im right.Please let me know why u think
so?.This is the code again

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:import href="a.xsl"/>
  <xsl:template match="Login">       <!-- Changed it according to ur tip
David :) -->
                    <xsl:for-each select="Loginscreen">  
                	     	<xsl:value-of select="$text1"/> 
		           	<xsl:value-of select="$text2"/>
                        <xsl:value-of select="@username"/> <!-- From the XML
file -->
				<xsl:value-of select="$text3"/> 
           </xsl:for-each>
   </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


My question was if I give this namespace URI,then the attribute @username
never shows up.But if I use 2 different namespaces,one for importing xsl
file variables and other one for attribute from xml,the attribute is showing
in IE5.The changed code will be

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl"
xmlns:xslnew="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xslnew:import href="a.xsl"/>
<xsl:import href="a.xsl"/>
  <xsl:template match="Login">
                    <xsl:for-each select="Loginscreen">
                	     	<xslnew:value-of select="$text1"/> 
		           	<xslnew:value-of select="$text2"/>
                        <xsl:value-of select="@username"/> <!-- From the XML
file -->
				<xslnew:value-of select="$text3"/> 
           </xsl:for-each>
   </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


 
why is that?.Is it something to do with IE5?.
