This creates a key of elements-by-position, so given a number it will
return the element at that position.

This gets the position of the context node.  (this could do with an
as="xs:integer")

> <xsl:variable name="val" select="document($src)/key('p', $posn)"/>

This gets the value of the of the element at that position in document($src)
