Re: [xsl] variable definition reuse

["Laura Jenkins" <xsl_list@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

David,
I need those variables because in the same style sheet they are used many 
times and i dont want to keep doing select="exp-date"  also some of the 
variables need to be formatted and checked for a perticular value and stuff 
like that. so i need them to be variables.. So no having said that can how 
can i place them in a different file??
