Hello, this seems to be a bug: If I apply this stylesheet:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format" xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:fox="http://xml.apache.org/fop/extensions">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/doc">
<xsl:variable name="tricky" select="current()/@name"/>
<xsl:message>
<xsl:value-of select="$tricky"/>
</xsl:message> <xsl:for-each select="//nasty">
<xsl:message>
<xsl:value-of select="$tricky"/>
</xsl:message>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>to this xml file:
<doc name='rubbish'>
<nasty name='gold'/>
</doc>You will see the output of Xalan turning rubbish into gold! The problem is obviously in the current() function in this line: <xsl:variable name="tricky" select="current()/@name"/>
It seems to store the reference to a nodeset in the variable tricky instead of the nodeset itself. If I change current() to the equivalent "."(a dot) the example works as expected.
Best regards, Roland
