Problem in Selecting elements in XSLT

Question

Hi,
I have the following XML.
<asx:values>
<Seg1 A="a" B="b>
<Seg1 A="c" B="d">
<Seg2 X="a" Y="b>
<Seg2 X="c" Y="d">
</asx:values>
Now i have the following XSLT.
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:sapxsl="http://www.sap.com/sapxsl" xmlns:asx="http://www.sap.com/abapxml" version="1.0" >
  <xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
  <xsl:template match="/|*">
       <xsl:element name="asx:values">
           <xsl:for-each select="//asx:values/*">
                <xsl:variable name="segment1"select="name()"/>
                   <xsl:element name="{$segment1}">
                  <xsl:for-each select="//asx:values/$segmennt1">
         </xsl:for-each>
   </xsl:element>
  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:element>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>
Now in the Second for Loop i dont want to select all the elements but the elements whose name is in $segment1.
for example in first loop $segment get value 'Seg1'then in the second loop i need to select only Seg1 elements. But some how the above code is not working. Can you please help.

Hi, I think maybe the following code can achieve your requirement:
[code]
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:sapxsl="http://www.sap.com/sapxsl" xmlns:asx="http://www.sap.com/abapxml" version="1.0" >
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:template match="/|*">
<xsl:element name="values">
<xsl:for-each select="//values/*">
<xsl:variable name="segment1" select="name()"/>
<xsl:for-each select="//values/*">
<xsl:variable name="segment2" select="name()"/>
<xsl:if test="$segment2 = $segment1">
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>
[/code]
thanks
