Yes it does, Python copies it into a plain dict at call time. > I need to perform dynamic lookup of variables for the stylesheet.

You should make the lookup explicit in your XSLT code using an XPath function. See here: http://lxml.de/extensions.html Stefan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
