This is an XSL list; please use it for XSL-specific questions in the future.

The selectNodes and selectSingleNode M$ extensions can only return 
elements nodes AFAIK, so you'll just have to retreive the target 
element, cast it to Element if needed by your language and use DOM 
methods (getAttribute etc) to retreive the attribute value.
