I missed that one. You don't need(and as you have discovered, can't use) the braces here. "select" is not an attribute, even thought it has the same form as an attribute, so an Attribute Value Template (AVT) (that's what the braces are) is inappropriate here. Lose them, and you should be OK. -- Charles Knell cknell@xxxxxxxxxx - email

XPath error Invalid expression substring({@url}, -5, 5)='.html'
Look again carefully. The period before the file extension isn't being counted in the length of the substring you are testing. You will have to change "substring({@url}, -4, 4)" to substring({@url}, -5, 5)" if you want to test it against ".html".

I am trying to evaluate the last 3 or 4 characters of a URL so that I can add javascript in the href attribute.
It is not liking the {@url}. Is this not just the string value of the url attribute? Help on the syntax appreciated.
..more <xsl:attribute name="id"> <xsl:value-of select="@id"/> </xsl:attribute> </xsl:if> <xsl:attribute name="href"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="substring({@url}, -4, 4)!='.html'"> javascript: do_windowopen(' <xsl:value-of select="@url"/> ') </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="substring({@url}, -3, 3)!='.htm'"> javascript: do_windowopen(' <xsl:value-of select="@url"/> ') </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="@url"/> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:attribute> ..more
