I can't place my finger on why this is slightly odd, but you could do: <xsl:value-of select="*[name()=$child]"/> That will give you 1 or 2 depending on whether $child is 'a' or 'b' Dion -----Original Message----- From: Steve Renshaw [mailto:renshaw_steve@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2002 10:42 AM To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [xsl] variable in xpath? I have a variable $child that holds element name as if it was assinged by one the following: <xsl:variable name="child" select="'a'"/> <xsl:variable name="child" select="'b'"/> with <element> as the context node, how do i select the contents of either <a> or <b> using $child from the following fragment? <element><a>1</a><b>2</b></element> <xsl:template match="element"> <xsl:value-of select="... $child ..."/> </xsl:element> Thx _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
