XOM API for Processing XML with Java

["Michael Kay" <mike AT saxonica.com>]

XSLT and XPath questions are best asked on the xsl-list at
www.mulberrytech.com.

Define a key

<xsl:key name="fk" match="AccessForm" use="@id"/>

Then when PartRevision is the context node, you can get the role using

key('fk',substring(@accessRefs,2))/@role
