I have declared a variable in my .xsl file. Now I want to update the older value with new value. For example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:w="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main">
<xsl:output method="html" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<Document>
<xsl:variable name="topLevelHeadings" select = "//w:body/w:p[w:pPr[w:pStyle[@w:val='Heading1']]]"/>
<xsl:variable name="beforeHeading" select="false()"/>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$beforeHeading">
<xsl:apply-templates select="//w:body/w:p">
<xsl:with-param name="scope" select="count(//w:body/child::*)-1"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="$topLevelHeadings">
<xsl:variable name="beforeHeading" select="true()"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="$topLevelHeadings">
<xsl:with-param name="scope" select="count(//w:body/child::*)-1"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:apply-templates select="//w:body/w:p[w:r[w:t]]">
<xsl:with-param name="scope" select="count(//w:body/child::*)-1"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>

<xsl:template match="//w:body/w:p[w:pPr[w:pStyle]]">

<xsl:variable name="currIndex" select="count(preceding-sibling::*)"/>
<xsl:if test="$currIndex <= $scope">
<!-- Get current heading value -->
<xsl:variable name="currHeading" select="./w:pPr/w:pStyle/@w:val"/>
<!-- Heading tag -->
<xsl:element name="{$currHeading}">

<xsl:attribute name ="index">

If it happens that you need such a behavior in a transform, it means that probably you have to change the overall "design" of it. It's also hard to get what you are trying to do wihtout showing your input document and the wanted output.
Because you can't update variables, you have to rethink your code. The pattern (that I'm able to imagine) closest to your request is something like this:
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="topLevelHeadings" select="//w:body/w:p
[w:pPr[w:pStyle[@w:val='Heading1']]]"/>
<xsl:variable name="beforeHeading">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$topLevelHeadings">
<xsl:value-of select="true()"/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:value-of select="false()"/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>
<!-- your choose staff -->
<!-- for instance -->
<xsl:if test="$beforeHeading='true'">
<xsl:message>pass</xsl:message>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
You can't. XSLT is a functional programming language so variables cannot be modified. Use recursion to do what you want instead.
