Hi Martin,
Its schema is exactly the same as the sample XML, itbs a similar document
with different values. To be honest, I whipped this repro up in vim so in
reality
the xpath selection within the message should correspond to the same element
path I am iterating over but in the alternate document. In that case it should
be

    <xsl:value-of
select="$document/root/nodeA/nodeB[@name=$name]/@*[local-name()=$attr]" />

Sorry about that, I should have paid more attention.

Thanks,
jlc
