Unfortunately, the stylesheet is no longer recognizing that a param has been defined at all, and is always defaulting to VALUE3, as determined by the "otherwise" section. It seems to think that $OUTSIDE_PARAM is always empty, even though it's not. Am I missing something completely obvious?
Have you confirmed that $fork1 is being set correctly?
Sounds like an opportunity to throw some diagnostics to the error port:
<xsl:message>Fork: <xsl:value-of select="$fork1"/></xsl:message> <xsl:message>Param: <xsl:value-of select="$OUTSIDE_PARAM"/></xsl:message>
If in your environment you don't have an error port, then you might be able to put diagnostic information into the output using a comment:
<xsl:comment>Fork: <xsl:value-of select="$fork1"/> Param: <xsl:value-of select="$OUTSIDE_PARAM"/></xsl:comment>
(but be careful if this is in the middle of adding attributes to an element as it will choke off the ability to add attributes after adding the comment)
I hope this helps.
