Extended stylesheet parameters?

[Bielik, Robert]

As I understand, it is possible to set stylesheet parameters before processing 
the XSL
with XalanTransformer::transform . But is there a way to set several parameters 
and enumerate them
with XPath ?? Something like (input programmatically, i.e. not in XSL)

<xsl:param name="stuff">
        <stuff id="1"/>
        <stuff id="2"/> 
        <stuff id="3"/>
</xsl:param>

and then in the XSL use:
<xsl:for-each select="$stuff/stuff">
        <xsl:param name="currentStuffID" select="@id"/>
        ...
</xsl:for-each>

TIA
