xslt map for each loop - dictionary

Question

<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet"
xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"
xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel"
xmlns:ss="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet"

xmlns:pi="urn:com.workday/picof">
I have the following map:
<xsl:variable name="tabsNames">
<entry><name>A</name><value>one</value></entry>
<entry><name>B</name><value>two</value></entry>
</xsl:variable>
I would like to iterate the map to get each key and value assigned to a variable:
<xsl:for-each select="$tabsNames/element()">
<xsl:variable name="tabName" select="./entry/name"/>
<xsl:variable name="tabValue" select="./entry/value"/>
</xsl:for-each>
How should the select look like in order to get name and value?

Answer 1

Well, a variable alone does nothing but given your variable with a temporary tree containing some entry elements if you want to process them with for-each and have the name and value in your variables inside of the for-each use e.g.
<xsl:for-each select="$tabsNames/entry">
<xsl:variable name="tabName" select="name"/>
<xsl:variable name="tabValue" select="value"/>
</xsl:for-each>
Given the namespaces you have shown in your edit of the question you have two choices, either you need to make sure your temporary elements in the variable do not end up in the default namespace xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet" you have on your stylesheet, you can do that with
<xsl:variable name="tabsNames" xmlns="">
<entry><name>A</name><value>one</value></entry>
<entry><name>B</name><value>two</value></entry>
</xsl:variable>
then my suggestion above remains valid, or you need to adjust your paths with e.g.
<xsl:for-each select="$tabsNames/ss:entry">
<xsl:variable name="tabName" select="ss:name"/>
<xsl:variable name="tabValue" select="ss:value"/>
</xsl:for-each>
or
<xsl:for-each select="$tabsNames/entry" xpath-default-namespace="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet">
<xsl:variable name="tabName" select="name"/>
<xsl:variable name="tabValue" select="value"/>
</xsl:for-each>
