Re: Aw: Re: [xsl] Trying to Extract a node with matching attribute value with xsltproc

["ohaya ohaya@xxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 Martin (et al),
That (changing to xsl:copy-of) did the trick!!
Thanks!!
Jim

 You need xsl:copy-of, not xsl:value-of, if you want to output the full node.
But if there is some default namespace declaration the suggested XPath
expression might not select anything.

    I tried the XSL that Liam suggested, but it isn't finding anything

   Here's snippet of the XML file which should have matched:
    B B B B B B B B B B B  <Setting Name="TheOneIWant" Type="htf:map">
B B B B B B B B B B B B B  <Setting Name="requiresignedassertion"
Type="xsd:boolean">false</Setting>
B B B B B B B B B B B B B  <Setting Name="succinctid"
Type="xsd:string">2KYi3gZ7THiZU0Hbft/mYgio0PE=</Setting>

    .   .   B B B B B B B B B  </Setting>   .   .
   Also, I think that I may not have been clear about what I want as the
output of running the XSLT...
   If the XSLT was successful, I want the output to be the ENTIRE matching
node, including all the contents of the node, i.e.:
      B B B B B B B B B B B  <Setting Name="TheOneIWant" Type="htf:map">
B B B B B B B B B B B B B  <Setting Name="requiresignedassertion"
Type="xsd:boolean">false</Setting>
B B B B B B B B B B B B B  <Setting Name="succinctid"
Type="xsd:string">2KYi3gZ7THiZU0Hbft/mYgio0PE=</Setting>

    .   .   B B B B B B B B B  </Setting>
   That's why, in my original post, I thought I had to include use of the
identity transformation.

   My apologies if I wasn't clear about that.
   Thanks,   Jim

 I think what you want is simply XPath here.

 But with XSLT you could use,

 <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
 xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>

 B  <xsl:template match="/">
 B  B  <xsl:value-of select="//Setting[@Name = 'TheOneIWant']" />
 B  </xsl:template>
 </xsl:stylesheet>

 The xsl:value-of "instruction" evalueates its argument and converts the
 result to a string (actually a "text node").

 The contents of the "select" attribute is an XPath expression.
