Hallo Henry,
HZ> Variables that are declared by a template are stored in a stack frame
HZ> (org.apache.xpath.VariableStack) at run-time. The fix-up process finds
HZ> the integer index into the stack frame for each variable reference in an
HZ> XPath _expression_. When an _expression_ is evaluated, the _expression_
HZ> evaluation for a variable reference uses the index to look up the value in
HZ> the stack frame, instead of looking up the value by name.

Yes, thank you! The use indexes seems to be a very popular concept in the XalanJ world.
