Well I found out what my problem was. Seems the Xalan.jar version I had was
very old, I went and downloaded the new version and no sooner did I place it
in my classpath and run this, and the list populated. The code you provided
did help as well. Thanks Brian for the help.

Hmm, it seems minor, but try:

<select>
  <xsl:for-each select="$v_employer/employer/option">
    <option value="{.}"><xsl:value-of select="."/></option>
  </xsl:for-each>
</select>

After reading your message again, it appears as though you convert the
entire parameter to a node-set.  $v_employer by itself represents the root
node of the node-set, so the XPath expression in my original suggestion
would be the same as writing select="/option", which isn't what you want.
See if that fixes your problem.

cheers,
b.
