Re: lookup table

Sorry, it has to be "term[@name = name(current())]".

Both @name and name() refer to the term element, so it's true for:
<term name="term"/>

What you probably want is "term[@name = current()/name()]".

Can I have a static lookup table *inside* my xsl stylesheet?

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:data="urn:some.urn"
exclude-result-prefixes="data">

<data:definitions>
<term name="gmt">Greenwich Mean Time</term>
<term name="mst">Mountain Standard Time</term>
</data:definitions>

<xsl:template>
<xsl:value-of select="document('')/*/data:definitions[@name='gmt']"/>
</xsl:template>
...


What I'm doing is

select="document('')/*/data:definitions/term[@name = name()]"

(where the attribute matches the node name).

The input is like:

 <times>
   <mst>some time value</mst>
   <utc>another time value</utc>
 </times>

But it doesn't work! Everything else is as you suggested.
Are @name and name() comparable as strings?
