outputting string sequences?

Is there a way to iterate through a sequence of string values and output them? I'd like to do something like the following, which will only output the first string:

<xforms:output value="for $parameter in ('id', 'viewpoint') return concat($parameter, ' is ''', xxforms:get-request-parameter($parameter), '''')"/>

I tried using a repeat, but that doesn't work either.

This also came up yesterday when I was trying to output the sequence of strings that the tokenize() function returns.

Is there some general pattern I can use?

Thanks,
-Jim

Try:

string-join(for $parameter..., '')
