This is a FFFFFAQ: variables in XSLT cannot vary within their scope, you must find a functional approach to your problem.

Try reading the XSLT Recommendation and many of the freely available resources that address these beginner questions. There is an *excellent* FAQ at:

I'm not certain how to handle a specific variable operation.
