Re: collect elements into variable and apply-template

  <xsl:variable name="a">
    <xsl:for-each select="xxx/*">
        <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
    </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:variable>


don't do that, do this

  <xsl:variable name="a" select="xxx/*">

It's a lot less typing and it will make the use of teh variable in an
Xpath legal.
