Excellent; thanks!

So then, if I want to bring this together with the other issue that 
David C. helped me with last night, what's the best way to have the 
from value conditioned on a parameter or variable?

This is what I ended up with the solve the other related problem.  So 
in my importing stylesheet, I override $chapters with a definition that 
includes all the chapters.

  <xsl:variable name="chapters" select="/"/>
  <xsl:variable name="citerefs" 
select="($chapters)//db:biblioref/@linkend,
                                        
/course:syllabus//course:reading/@refid,
                                        //cite:biblioref/@key"/>

So for the footnotes, if I have multiple db:chapter or 
$chapters/db:chapter elements, then it should count within those 
chapters.  Otherwise, it should count over the document (which would 
probably be db:article).
