Thanks, Matt
After some pretty exhaustive searching on the web, I have decided to join the list. I have noticed in the archives that more than one person has had the same issue as I have...how to create an XPath expression dynamically (from a variable, etc). The answer to these questions was to use any of the available *:evaluate functions. I would like to try to avoid that, since it increases the parse time so much....and that is not acceptable.
My question is if there is any other way to accomplish this, for example using XSLT2.0.
Sorry, but this is one feature that we decided not to put in XSLT 2.0. The only choices are really:
(a) using an xx:evaluate() extension function (b) modifying the stylesheet before you execute it
I'm not sure why you think there is a performance problem with the extension function approach?
