XSL navigation in XML tree problem

> Hello XSL gourous...
> 
> Hope you can help me with this one... I have a problem regarding some XSL
> features. I have xml documents in which there are java methods
> definitions. In those methods are descriptions typed by the user. Part of
> those descriptions are about the parameters of the methods. The user must
> define the number and the name of the parameter he wishes to document in
> an element using this format: <MPA number="..." name="...">Parameter
> description... blablabla... </MPA>. The name of the parameter is defined
> nowhere else... Of course, the user is not forced to define all parameters
> and there is no defined order for the user's descriptions. The XSL I am
> working on tries to create the signature of the method and needs the names
> of the parameters (if they are described...). These names are accessed in
> the processing of the parameters but are at a completely different level
> of the structure. The number of the parameter is not defined in the
> parameter but the parameters are in the right sequence (the first
> parameter is number 1, the second is number 2...). I am trying to find a
> way to have those available parameter names in the method signature. I
> provide here a sample of the XSL I am using and a sample of the XML I am
> using. In red, you will find the interesting parts... In the XSL, the part
> in red is where the parameter names should be discovered (that part
> doesn't work of course...). In the XML, the parts in red are the user's
> description of the parameters.

> The solution must be found in XSL. A script may be useful but I would
