Hi David,

so I see how to use dynamically assign values to attribues but now my
problem is with a test that the value of the attribute $node (defined as
GARDEN) matches the name of the parent node for the current attribute. I don't think my test is constructed right.


<xsl:param name="attr">ROSE</xsl:param>
<xsl:param name="value">RED</xsl:param>
<xsl:param name="node">GARDEN</xsl:param>
...
    <xsl:template match="@*" priority="10">
    <xsl:variable name="test" select="$node"/>
       <xsl:attribute name="{$attr}">
            <xsl:choose>
                <xsl:when test="$test=parent[name()]"><xsl:value-of
select="$value"/></xsl:when>

I guess you mean: <xsl:when test="$test=name(parent::*)">

<xsl:otherwise><xsl:value-of select="."/></xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:attribute>
...


thanks for any light anyone can shed...
