> document($doc)//$type" ... > The problem is that the $type isn't allowed here it is, so long as it has the right type, for example if it contained a node set with the itemA element, it would work (although it would be equivalent to $type, the document($doc)// wouldn't do anyhing in that case. > I have confirmed that if I > do select="document($doc)//itemA" it works. but itemA is an XPath expression that generates a node set, your parameter is probably string valued, so that what you have is equiavlent to select="document($doc)//'itemA'" which is a syntax error. You could go "document($doc)//*[name()=$type]" but are you sure you really want to do that? why not pass in the nodes themseleves as a parameter rather than the name of the nodes.
