Subject: RE: [xsl] Can we have a <xsl:attribute> inside a <xsl:variable>? From: "Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 14 Apr 2006 22:10:32 +0100 |
> I've a question: Can we have a <xsl:attribute> inside > a <xsl:variable>? Wrong question. xsl:attribute writes an attribute to the result tree, which isn't what you want to do. In XSLT 1.0 you want: <xsl:variable name="prefix"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$var1"> <xsl:value-of select="$var1"/> etc. In 2.0 you can write <xsl:variable name="prefix" select="if ($var1) then $var1 else $var2"/> Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/ > > I'm trying to do something like this: I've to set a > variable depending on a condition that if $var1 is > null or not.
