Re: Nodesets in XSLT 1.1 and 1.0

strange, I tested this
<xsl:variable name="data" xmlns="">

on both Saxon 6.5.5 and 9.2 prior to posting
and it works,
I see no explanation why it would not work at your end

That didn't work but this did...
Thanks for helping me think through this...

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.1"
  xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet"
  xmlns:default="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet"
  xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
  xmlns:exslt="http://exslt.org/common">

  <xsl:variable name="data">
    <root>
      <test>1000</test>
      <test>2000</test>
      <test>3000</test>
      </root>
    </xsl:variable>

    <xsl:template match="/">
      <xsl:for-each select="$data//default:test">
        <xsl:value-of select="."/>
      </xsl:for-each>
    </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

well, also the variable is in that default namespace

try this
<xsl:variable name="data" xmlns="">
