RE: [xsl] referring to variables using variables?

Hello again,
I bound a namespace prefix xmlns and it doesnt complain when i translate it but the output does not show content from any of the imported documents. Also in the ouput, the statement xmlns:xx="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt" is included in each <h1> tag as a paramter??

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xx="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="html" />
<!--Load people in xml files-->
<xsl:variable name="index">
<HR>http...</HR>
<Recruitment_and_Hiring>http...</Recruitment_and_Hiring>
<New_Managers>http...</New_Managers>
<New_Starters>http...</New_Starters>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="nsindex" select="xx:node-set($index)/*"/>

<xsl:template match="root">
<h1 class="page-title"><xsl:value-of select="./category/name" /></h1>
<p><xsl:value-of select="./category/description" /></p>
<xsl:apply-templates select="category/category/category[name='People In']" />
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="category">

<xsl:if test="count(ancestor::*)=3">
<xsl:variable name="colour" select="../@colour" />
<h2 class="head-hurs-{$colour}" style="margin-top:20px;"><xsl:value-of select="name" /></h2>
<p><xsl:value-of select="description" /></p>
<xsl:apply-templates select="./category" />
</xsl:if>

<xsl:if test="count(ancestor::*)=4">
<div style="float:left;" class="general-portlet">
<xsl:variable name="subcatcolor" select="../../@colour" />
<xsl:variable name="catname" select="name" />
<h2 class="head-hurs-{$subcatcolor}"><xsl:value-of select="name" /></h2>
<p><xsl:value-of select="description" /></p>
<ul class="in-portlet">
<xsl:for-each select="document($nsindex/*[name()=$catname])/root/child::*">
CONTENT
</xsl:for-each>
</ul>
</div>
<xsl:apply-templates select="./category" />
</xsl:if>

</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

I changed xmlns to another name but that didnt work and also tried david carlisle's suggestion for xalan but it said that namespace "http://exslt.org/common" does not contain any functions......

You need to bind the namespace prefix xx to a namespace that contains
the function with local-name "node-set". This depends on the XSLT
processor you are using. It looks as if you bound it to the null
namespace, and the null namespace does not contain any functions.
