Re: Newbie Problem
I think you're failing to retrieve the <fristName> you expect because
<xsl:for-each> has changed the current context to be your result-tree
fragemtn - rather than a node in the document.
One normal solution to this is to define a variable containing a node
from your input document before you enter the <xsl:for-each> loop.
e.g.
<xsl variable name='docroot' select='/wi:root'/>
and then use this variable to retrieve your desired <firstName>.
<td><xsl:value-of select="$docroot/changeLog/log[@id
= $cID]/@firstName" /></td>
I haven't tried this using a for-each loop on a node-set but it should work.
I'm never sure of the differences in the implementation of node-set in
different processors.
I have some style sheets using node-set that work fine under some XSLT
processors - but just throw errors under others.

Hello List,
I have a problem, I am not able to access any nodes/values from a Loop.
I have a sorted result tree fragment in a variable, I am using msxsl
node-set to loop through it.
Now when I need to access the other nodes of the document I am not
able to do so.
Pl. see below for the partial xsl and xml code. I have put two
comments in the xsl file one where I need the external node values but
not able to retrieve and second where I am able to retreive but do not
need
How can I access the outer/external nodes inside the loop, I also
tried using key() but it also didn't work inside the loop. It was
working fine outside the loop.
P.S. This xsl code is a part of a bigger xsl file.
Any advice will be very helpful. Thanks in advance.
