XSLT variables always have the same value once bound, people coming from
imperative programming languages sometimes expect that they should be
able to "change" the variable's value, which you can't do. You are the
first person I've seen that has complained that variables _do_ change
value. That never happens in XSLT.Some other problemmust be causing the
effect you see, if you posted a small example...
