[xsl] Counting the number of elements within and outputting a variable holding analyze-string results wrapped by elements in a for-each

[Alex Muir <alex.g.muir@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm interested in counting the number of elements in the variable
$varAnalyzeStr holding analyze-string results wrapped by elements and
then output the elements within the $varAnalyzeStr in a for-each.

I've been able to count the number accurately however not output the
variable varAnalyzeStr as a series of section elements. Currently I'm
looping 15 times in the for each but no outputting any content.

What am I doing wrong and is there a better way to do this?



<xsl:variable name="varAnalyzeStr" as="node()*">
        <xsl:analyze-string select="parent::node()/content/text()"
          regex="Y(\d+)Y">
          <xsl:matching-substring>

            <xsl:element name="section">
              <xsl:attribute name="href" select="regex-group(1)"/>
            </xsl:element>

          </xsl:matching-substring>
        </xsl:analyze-string>

 </xsl:variable>


      <xsl:choose>
        <xsl:when test="not(empty($varAnalyzeStr))">
        <xsl:element name="">
             <xsl:attribute name="Count" select="count($varAnalyzeStr)"/>
             <xsl:for-each select="$varAnalyzeStr">
                <xsl:value-of select="."/>
             </xsl:for-each>
        </xsl:element>
        </xsl:when>
      </xsl:choose>
