It's intentional and the reason for it is that people voted for it, but I can't read their minds to tell you why they did so. It can be quite convenient though when writing a micro-pipeline: <xsl:variable name="selected-nodes" select="...."/> <xsl:variable name="selected-nodes" select="if (XYZ) then $selected-nodes else ...."/> <xsl:variable name="selected-nodes" select="if (PQR) then $selected-nodes else ...."/> Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/
