passing and retrieving parameter to a template

I have a variable defined in one template.  This variable actually contains
the value of an attribute.  I am passing the value of this variable as a
parameter to another template.  But when I retrieve the value of the
variable it is empty.

I have been banging my head for a while on this.  Please help!!

Thanks

Following is the code snippet:

<xsl:template
match="/xs:schema/xs:element/xs:complexType/xs:sequence/xs:element">
        <xsl:variable name="sectionShortName"><xsl:value-of
select="./@name"></xsl:value-of></xsl:variable>  //assigning value
     <h1><xsl:value-of
select="/xs:schema/xs:annotation/xs:appinfo/dne:template/dne:constrainedElem
ent[@name=$sectionShortName]/dne:constraint/@label"/></h1>
     <blockquote>
    <blockquote>
     <blockquote>
     <p>&#160;</p>
     <table width="64%" border="0" align="center">
      <xsl:value-of select = "$sectionShortName" /> 
      <xsl:apply-templates>
           <xsl:with-param name = "sectionShortNameParam"
select="$sectionShortName"/>    // passing value
       </xsl:apply-templates>
      </table>
        <p>&#160;</p>
      </blockquote>
    </blockquote>
  </blockquote>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template
match="/xs:schema/xs:element/xs:complexType/xs:sequence/xs:element/xs:comple
xType/xs:sequence/xs:element">
       <xsl:param name = "sectionShortNameParam" />            // declaring
local parameter
       <xsl:value-of select = "$sectionShortNameParam" />   // retrieving
value
