Subject: Re: [xsl] Using the value of the current attribute in select From: Brandon Ibach <brandon.ibach@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 3 Apr 2011 19:25:08 -0400 |
There are (at least) two ways to do this. First, you can save the attribute value to a variable: <xsl:variable name="colname" select="@name"/> <xsl:variable name="fkey" select="following-sibling::foreign-key[child::reference/@local=$colname]"/> Alternatively, you could use XSLT's "current" function, which always returns the node being processed by the current template: <xsl:variable name="fkey" select="following-sibling::foreign-key[child::reference/@local=current()/@nam e]"/> -Brandon :) On Sun, Apr 3, 2011 at 7:18 PM, Mansour Al Akeel <mansour.alakeel@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I am trying to get a copy-of an element by the value of one of it's > decendants.
