A very good XSL list is xsl-list@lists.mulberrytech.com.

I don't understand what you're trying to accomplish...can you supply the 
result you expect (and the input)...real code...this example only has a 
template to match the root node and it will depend on the built in 
templates to process the remaining nodes...also, you may just need a 
variable.

Your'e stylesheet declaration is incorrect...see below...

Try changing your code from this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [
<!ENTITY foo "test">
...


...to this  **NOT TESTED**  -it's been a while since I used XSLT but 
there are tons of resources on the web...
http://www.w3schools.com/xsl/default.asp
http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt - W3C spec
http://www.zvon.org/HTMLonly/XSLTutorial/Books/Book1/index.html - check 
this site out

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<!ENTITY foo "test">
...

..or if you want to use a variable substitute the ENTITY declaration 
with this:

<xsl:variable name="foo" select="'test'" /> (makes it global due to the declaration spot)
then refer to it by using $foo
