Thanx for the tip, I was doing it wrong. I changed 
the XML to 

 XML
 --------------
    <sports>
    <name>sports</name>
    <title>Sports Channel</title>
    </sports>
    <golf>
    <name>golf</name>
    <title>Golf Channel</title>
    </golf>


and it worked. 

But I have a follow-up question, in case my XML is
structured as earlier

 XML
 --------------
    <channel>
    <name>sports</name>
    <title>Sports Channel</title>
    </channel>
    <channel>
    <name>golf</name>
    <title>Golf Channel</title>
    </channel>


How can I select the Channel with a Attribute
Name:Sports and select the Title using XSL

<channel>
     <title><xsl:value-of select="$ochannels//*[name()
 = $channel]/name"/></title>
 </channel>


Basically, I am trying to select the Channel Title
based on a parameter I pass to the XSL

Thanx again
Rajesh.

You don't have an element in your document called
<sports>, let alone a
<sports> element with a child called <name>.

What output did you expect?
