xsl escape double quote parameter
> that gives me errors:

You know it would be a lot easier to help if you said what the errors
were.

however in this case it is possible to spot the error:

"'NRC Research Press: Revue du génie et de la science de
l&#x0027;environnement'"

after it has been through the XML parser that XPath expression is

'NRC Research Press: Revue du génie et de la science de
l'environnement'

which is an error, you can't use ' in an XPath string delimuted by '.

So you need the Xpath expression

"NRC Research Press: Revue du génie et de la science de
l'environnement"

and to get that into an XML argument you need to escape either the " or
the ' so either

select="&quot;NRC Research Press: Revue du génie et de la science de
l'environnement&quot;"

or

select='"NRC Research Press: Revue du génie et de la science de
l&apos;environnement"'
