> 3) the key definition does not work for the nodeset. They key indexes all elements in the document: it has nothing to so with any variable. If you have <xsl:key name="key" match="dovizler" use="key"> and <xsl:variable name="mydovizler" select="dovizler[2]"/> Then given <x> <dovizler><key>a</key></dovizler> <dovizler><key>a</key></dovizler> </x> Your expression of select="$mydovizler[generate-id(.) = generate-id(key('dkey',key)[1])]" will work, but it will select all the elements in $mydovizler that are the first elements in the document for their key value. In this case there is only one element in mydovizler, and it has key value 'a' but it isn't the first such element in the document so the empty node set is selected. the key definition works, it just isn't doing what you want. Unfortunately it isn't clear what you do want as you only showed the non working definition, not a description of what you are trying to do. > should i give the input file?(xml and xsl) complete runnable files are good, but best to take the time to cut them down as above to five or six lines, so that just the problem is highlighted not your entire input source.
