I don't know how 'correct' this is but I finally got it to work with the following snippet: <xsl:element name="A"> <xsl:attribute name="href"> servlet/lookup?member=<xsl:value-of select="MEMBNO"/> </xsl:attribute> </xsl:element> <xsl:value-of select="NAME"/> <xsl:element name="/A"> </xsl:element> Any comments?
