| As far as I can tell, I should be able to use a variable called <<foo:bar>>
|
|   <xsl:value-of select="$foo:var1"/>
|
| but when I try to run it using Xalan, I get the following output:
| 
| XSL Error: pattern = '$foo:var1'
| Extra illegal tokens: ':', 'var1', style tree node:

Seems like a bug in the version of Xalan you're using.

XT, Saxon, OracleXSL, and MSXSL3 (Sept2000) accept $foo:var1.

Perhaps a later release of Xalan fixes this.
