variable question

xsl variable utf 8
Why does my below __variable not seems to work, while if I use the same xpath expression in place of it, it does? How can I fix this to use the variable? I just want to localize in one place the configuration for where to find the data (in the below case, on the file system, in a directory called "bib-data", where each reference is in an individual file named with the value of the citation ID).
