OK, possibly.

do you just mean it's in scope somewhere else or you explictly pass it as
a parameter? either way...

In standard XSLT 1 you can not query into a result tree fragment, so
either you are using xslt 2 (and it's a temporary tree not a result tree
fragment) or you have used the node-set extension function?
Also <name> exists in your source but you said you were storing a
transformed result? presumably that also has a name element?

if select="name" gets the name element select="@zip" might get the zip
attribute but this deends on the zip attribute being in the transformed
set of nodes (which you haven't shown) and that the transformed source is
available to be queried with xpath.

as you might guess, this would be useful...
