Does it  work if you rewrite this as

 <xsl:variable name="part3ID" as="xs:string"
  select="current-
group()[self::div[@class='analyze_visual']]/@nextExposID" />

and

as

<part num="3" globalNum="{$part3ID}">

?


When you put content inside a variable without an assigned type, it
becomes a document with a document node.
