There is no way to do that inherent to XSL.  There _might_ be a way to 
do that in the particular environment you are processing your XML.  
Which I guess is a Java XSL processor?  I'd reccommend finding the 
listserv for the Java XSL processor you're using, and asking there. 
There might not be a way to do it.

In my prior web development, I was accustomed to being able to access environment variables (and their values, natch) in my CGI scripts and/or via Server Side Includes.  Is there an equivalent mechanism for accessing those environment variables within an XSL page?
