[xsl] Returning a sequence of text nodes from xsl:apply-templates

[Clint Redwood <clint@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi! I may be fundamentally failing to understand how this works, but I've been
trying to obtain a sequence result from xsl:apply-templates, where I am
looking for each text result to be a member of the final sequence. There are
no nodes or tags in the results.

I have

<xsl:variable name="resultVar" as="item() *">
  <xsl:apply-templates select="$nodeList" />
</xsl:variable>

As I have said, my expectation was that I would get a sequence, one entry per
node in $nodeList.

However when I use

<xsl:value-of select="$resultVar" separator="$separatorVar" />

I get only a single output of all the concatenated results, without a
separator.

I'm using Saxon b 9.1 and xsl 2.0.

Any suggestions as to where my understanding has failed would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Yours,

Clint Redwood
