RE: search other xml document from xsl

>I want to select the "value" element in the messages.xml file and it
appears that we're selecting the id value in the

apparently the xpath you gave me is returning a >>BOOLEAN and it's expecting
a NODELIST.
sorry, lack of coffee
<xsl:template match="message">
<xsl:param name="id" select="@id"/>
 <xsl:for-each select="document('messages.xml')/messages/message[@id=$id]">
<xsl:value-of select="@id"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

am using saxon and I continually have the stylesheet version set to 1.1 by
