RE: Find ancestor attribute of variable

Does the [1] in your answer ensure that this is the closest
<contentitem>?

<contentitem>
  <contentitem>	<--- Would select this?
	<anchor/>
  </contentitem>
</contentitem>

<xsl:variable name="type" select="ancestor::$anchor-node[name(.) =
'contentitem'] you can't have a variable after an axis, you just want

$anchor-node/ancestor::contentitem[1]/@type
