[xsl] Simple lookup in XSLT2

[Jens Stavnstrup <js@xxxxxxx>]

All,

I have for quite a few years used this primitive way of translating
from a month number to a month name.

<xslt:variable name="$months">
  <m>January</m><m>February</m><m>March</m><m>April</m>
  <m>May</m><m>June</m><m>July</m><m>August</m>
  <m>September</m><m>October</m><m>November</m><m>December</m>
</xsl:variable>

The actual lookup was done using a this expression

<xsl:value-of
           select="$months/m[number($month)]"/>


Where $month can be the string 1 .. 12.

This works just fine with XSLT 1.0, but for some strange reason, it does
not work for XSLT2.

I have massage the select statement beyound recognition, but it still does
not work. i am obviouly missing something basic XSLT2.


Regards,

Jens
