Re: Storing an XPath fragment in a variable

or, another approach, store the strings 'RED' , 'GREEN', etc in a variable
or xml fragment and use 'contains(., $possiblevalues)' to test them all at once

this function returns true or false and takes only one string as an
argument -- I'm not sure how this would work in an xpath expression in
a for-each statement.

<xsl:template match="foo">
	<xsl:apply-templates select="*[contains($query,name())]"/>
</xsl:template>
