var expert1layer="<xsl:apply-templates select="document(/sco/loadexperts/$expert1id/text" />"; You can't do that, anymore than you can do "document(/sco/loadexperts/'foo'/text" />"; an Xpath is an expression not a string, it would be like saying in C if you had the string x= "2 +" could you go y= x 3 and have that evaluate as y = 2 + 3 and set y to 5. some systems have an evaluate extension that allows the evaluation of strings as xpath expressions (see threads on that over the last couple of days) then you would do document(saxon:evaluate(concat('/sco/loadexperts/',$expert1id,'/text')))" />"; but here you can probably just do select="document(/sco/loadexperts/*[name()=$expert1id]/text" />"; so long as the variable just has an element name not a whole chunk of xpath.
