XSLT is a bit funny in that <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:apply-templates select="$var"/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> won't run by itself but will execute perfectly well provided it is imported/included into a stylesheet that is within a hierachy of stylesheets where one of them defines $var... but it provides no indication of that fact. To obfuscate things further, if two definitions of $var exist in different stylesheets then import precedence comes into play where the instance of $var to use is decided by which of the import statements comes last in the importing stylesheet. Theres plenty of scope to write some hard-to-follow code...
