[xsl] Context node is within a variable

Hi, I have a problem which I am currently solving using a temporary tree within a variable, which I thought would allow me to process the contents of my document multiple times.

For example:

<Root>
   <IncompleteCopyInformation>
       <Copy attr1="a" attr2="b"/>
       <Copy attr1="c" attr2="d"/>
       <Copy attr1="e" attr2="f"/>
   </
   <Body>
       <h1>...</h1>
   </
</

In my scenario, the CopyInformation isn't quite good enough, therefore I need to run some XSLT to get some more information - this I stored in a variable, which I then iterate through to provide multiple copies of the body itself:

<xsl:variable name="Copies"> <CopyList> <xsl:apply-templates select="/Root/IncompleteCopyInformation" mode="ListGeneration" /> </CopyList> </xsl:variable>

<xsl:tempalte match="Copy" mode="ListGeneration">
   <ActualCopy>
       ... <!-- some logic going on here -->
   </ActualCopy>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="/">
   <xsl:apply-templates select="$Copies"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="ActualCopy">
   <h1>Copy <xsl:number ... /></h1>
   <xsl:apply-templates select="/Root/Body">
       <xsl:param .... />
   </xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:template>

This doesn't work because when I attempt to apply-templates to /Root/Body, the context appears to be limited to the variable - how can I get back to the document?

This is largely academic, as I found a way around it by moving the copy derivation code into a massive XPath, however interested to know if there is a solution.

Thanks,

Tristan
