Hi Kaerstin, just guessing that your XML would look something like <dataElement> <name>Field Name</name> <description>Field Description</description> <visible>visible</visible> <display>textarea</display> <optional>optional</optional> <multipleAllowed>false</multipleAllowed> <possibleValues> <value>some text</value> </possibleValues> </dataElement> , the following stylesheet, which uses the fragment you sent, <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="html" indent="yes"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:apply-templates select="dataElement" /> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="dataElement" > <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="display='textfield'"> <input type="text" name="{name}"/> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="display='textarea'"> <textarea name="{name}"> <xsl:value-of select="possibleValues/value" /> </textarea> </xsl:when> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> which outputs the following html: <textarea name="Field Name">some text</textarea> So, although I removed some of your code, your xsl was working fairly well... if it is still not working for you please let us know. <prs/> -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Curry [mailto:andrew.curry@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, March 26, 2004 9:51 AM To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [xsl] Generating form fields with xsl <xsl:choose><xsl:when test="display='textfield'"><input type="text" name="{name}"/></xsl:when> <xsl:when test="display='textarea'"><textarea name="{name}" ></textarea> </xsl:when> you are missing a $ off name and if display is an attribute it will be preceded by a $ or @ depending on the context i.e. <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="@display='textfield'"> <input type="text"name="{$name}"/> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> otherwise do something </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> ----- Original Message ----- From: "Pieter Reint Siegers Kort" <pieter.siegers@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, March 26, 2004 3:48 PM Subject: RE: [xsl] Generating form fields with xsl > Hi Kaerstin, > > Please post your XML or an extract of it so we can determine the cause > of your problem better, just like you did with the radio and check boxes. > > <prs/> > > -----Original Message----- > From: Johnson, Kaerstin [mailto:johns218@xxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Friday, March 26, 2004 9:08 AM > To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [xsl] Generating form fields with xsl > > > I have an xml page that gets translated into a html form using my xsl > stylesheet.
