creating variables in xslt

Yes, and in the original sketch they'd be out of scope outside the
xsl:if.

there is essentially no way to do what you want with variables in xslt
as they have lexical scope: you can always tell _from the program text_
which binding declared any variable that is used in a variable
reference.

It may be that you don't want to conditionally declare a variable but
rather, you want to declare a variable with value depending on a
condition
so

<xsl:variable name="x">
  <xsl:if ....
