RE: variable rtf as querystring in document uri

Hi all,

Thanks Michael, but the variable has a tree fragment, how to process it
as the following:

<xsl:variable name="q1">%3Cquery+id%3D%221%22+%2F%3E</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="q2"><request id="1" /></xsl:variable>

<xsl:variable  name="server">http://mydomain/q.php?query=</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="url"><xsl:copy-of select="$server" /><xsl:copy-of
select="$q1" /></xsl:variable>
<xsl:apply-templates select="document($url)" /> 

With variable 'q1' it works, but with 'q2' it does not.
So how to convert q2 into a uri encoded string q1?

I do not seem to get it working.

Greetings Rob
