Thanks David,

Here's my XML document:

<publications>

<header>
<heading>Paragraph Header</heading>
<para1>Para 1 text</para1>
<para2>Para 2 text</para2>
</header>

<Item Sector="Agriculture" response="no">
<name>Poor Farmers Relief Fund</name>
<description>A Consultation on ...</description>
<publishDate>05.01.04</publishDate>
<closingDate>20.02.04</closingDate>
<urnNumber>04/1245</urnNumber>
<image>image.jpg</image>
</Item>

</publications>

My "page-sequence" is as follows:

<fo:page-sequence master-reference="page1">
<fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">
<xsl:apply-templates select="publications/Item"/>
</fo:flow>
</fo:page-sequence>

And here's my XSL-FO code I'm trying to use to select the attribute (1st block).

<xsl:template match="Item">
<fo:block>
<xsl:value-of select="@Sector"/>
</fo:block>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="Item/name">
<fo:block>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</fo:block>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="Item/description">
<fo:block>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</fo:block>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="Item/publishDate">
<fo:block>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</fo:block>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="Item/closingDate">
<fo:block>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</fo:block>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="Item/urnNumber">
<fo:block>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</fo:block>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="Item/image">
<fo:block>
<fo:external-graphic src="url({.})"/>
</fo:block>
</xsl:template>

The result is:

Agriculture

The selection of the attribute has worked. However the result should be:

Agriculture
Poor Farmers Relief Fund
A Consultation on ..
05.01.04
20.02.04
04/1245
image

If I remove the 1st block selecting the attribute, the results are as desired, with out the attribute of course, as follows:

Poor Farmers Relief Fund
A Consultation on ..
05.01.04
20.02.04
04/1245
image

I need the results to be:

Agriculture
Poor Farmers Relief Fund
A Consultation on ..
05.01.04
20.02.04
04/1245
image

Thanks, Craig Webber.
