trouble with variables value not available

Assuming that : 

   <xsl:variable name="eur-uri" select="resolve-uri('prices/eur.xml',base-uri())"/>
   <xsl:variable name="eur-node" select="document($eur-uri)" />

Can someone explain me why this is retrieving some data :

    <xsl:value-of select="$eur-node//node()[text() = '4.99']/@position" />

and this is not ( i get the message "The variable value is unavailable') :

    <xsl:variable name="prix-fr" as="xs:string" ><xsl:text>4.99</xsl:text></xsl:variable>
    <xsl:value-of select="$eur-node//node()[text() = $prix-fr]/@position" />

I am working with oxygen and saxon 9.5. Any help would be much appreciated. I am really annoyed because when i put my xpath in xwatch, the second option works... :$

Solution

  • Thanks for your answer. Finally, it was a problem with the xslt variable debugging tool. The value was not showing up but the transformation worked perfectly.
