Yes, your solution would work fine on the input given by the OP (is OP
for Original Poster?). My point was that if the question_id's where
not ordered, then I think that your answer would not work, for
example:

<recordset>
    <row>
       <question_id>1</question_id>
       <answer>1: blah blah blah...</answer>
    </row>
    <row>
       <question_id>2</question_id>
       <answer>2: blah blah blah...</answer>
    </row>
    <row>
       <question_id>1</question_id>
       <answer>3: blah blah blah...</answer>
    </row>
    <row>
       <question_id>2</question_id>
       <answer>4: blah blah blah...</answer>
    </row>
    ...etc...
</recordset>

And now that I think about it, would:
<xsl:value-of select="key('rec', question_id)/answer"/>
not give only the first row/answer element with a given question_id,
no matter the current row element?

As I said, if I am wrong in my assumptions on how the language work, I
would be grateful for clarification.
