RE: <input> tags in xsl.

["Richard Lander" <rlander@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 Hello,

If you are using IE5, you should be able to still accomplish all of that.
Use something like:

<input type="text">
  <xsl:attribute name="value">
    <xsl:value-of select="/path/to/myvalue"/>
  </xsl:attribute>
</input>

Should work,

Richard.

Depends on what the context node is, but if myvalue is a child element of
the current one,
<input type="text" value="{myvalue}"/>

There are other ways to get to myvalue. Here are more examples:

<input type="text" value="{/path/to/myvalue}"/>

<xsl:variable name="val" select="/path/to/myvalue"/>
<input type="text" value="{$val}"/>

<!-- if context node is myvalue -->
<input type="text" value="{.}"/>

If you are using IE5, all bets are off.
