Hi,

I have a requirement like this.

<employee hireDate="09/01/1998">
   <COLUMN NAME="LAST">Herbert three</COLUMN>
   <COLUMN NAME="FIRST">Johnny</COLUMN>
   <COLUMN NAME="ANL_RATE"><![CDATA[26525.8500]]></COLUMN>
   <COLUMN NAME="STATUS"><![CDATA[A]]></COLUMN>
 </employee>

another piece of XML is
<DESC_TABLE>
<COLUMN NAME="STATUS"><![CDATA[A]]></COLUMN>
<COLUMN NAME="DESCR"><![CDATA[Active]]></COLUMN>
</ROW>
</DESC_TABLE>


while reading STATUS (status A), I need to look up the corresponding Description ('Active').


I will have to use only XSL 1.0 version, javascript and XALAN (if required)

how can I achieve this in XSL.

Thanks,
Anil
