Re: [xsl] constructing a "variable" select argument

Yes!!

Thank you, Florent and MK.
This will probably simplify my stylesheet by at least a factor of 10.
It is a gotcha.

There is one remaining wrinkle I could use you help with.

I have this statement:
<xsl:copy-of select="/Report/TrackT1/Position[@position='Left Front']/MCHistogram[@id='1']/svg:svg"/>

The position and id attributes can change, and I can handle that as in the earlier case.

However, the TrackT1 part of the expression can also change - to TrackT2, TrackT3, Track5-18, etc, taking on various values.

Assuming I bring a parameter into the template, and possibly use concatenation functions, how can I establish the right value in the middle of the XPath expression?

 You're selecting here element nodes that are childs of the context
node and whose name is 'T1'.  But I wonder if you don't want the string
'T1' instead:

<xsl:with-param name="track" select="'T1'"/>

(note the additional quotes).
