FAQ. See

This depends on your original problem.
Ask on the XSL list
http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list/
with a reasonably complete description on what you actually
want to achieve.
You'll get bonus points for using a mail client which doesn't
mangle white space, punctuation, spelling, grammar and/or
semantics of your post.

I should point out, as I understand it that only one template can
define xsl:variable--it cannot be defined in more than one
xsl:template, even if from another xsl:include.

As I understand it, you can assign xsl:variable in any template, as
long as it is only *once*. The value of a xsl:variable cannot change
once it has been set (with some exceptions you can find in the spec and
elsewhere on the internet). If you need it to 'change' then you
probably want to use xsl:parameter instead.

Please note, that the quotes around $value do not nest correctly. I
believe you have a single quote, then a double, then $value, then a
single and then a double quote.
Perhaps you are going about this the wrong way anyway. Why not create
an $inline-bordervalue and then an $other-bordervalue (or whatever) and
use them that way.
