title: XSL: How do I assign the value of an XML element to a variable (minimal change to page below)?
body: <p>See <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1468522/xslt-to-operate-on-element-value-before-displaying">xslt to operate on element value before displaying?</a> for the original XML and XSL. I got an answer to my question there.</p>
  
  <p>My other question on <a href="http://www.w3schools.com/xsl/tryxslt.asp?xmlfile=cdcatalog&amp;xsltfile=cdcatalog" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this same XML/XSL</a> is: if I would like to capture the value of an element (such as the "title" element) in an XSL local variable, and then operate on it, how do I capture that value and assign it to a variable? I have the feeling it has something to do with XSL "param", but I am not sure.</p>
  
  <p>So, on <a href="http://www.w3schools.com/xsl/tryxslt.asp?xmlfile=cdcatalog&amp;xsltfile=cdcatalog" rel="nofollow noreferrer">that same code</a>, what is the <em>minimal</em> change to the XSL so that I'll have the value of title in a variable?</p>
