I think I have some problems unterstanding XPath :/

In the above context (see ^^^) there are possibly three
different pid-attributes:

   1) pid attribute of the objectgroup (xsl:template match)
      which I have to access defining a xsl:variable outside
      of the loop (is there also a way without a variable?)

   2) pid attribute of xsl:for-each's current element
      which I have to access with @pid (or ./@pid)

   3) pid attribute of xsl:value-of's element which I have
      to access using current()/@pid


Is my above understanding correct?

thanx for your help,
Gerald
