I think i will be forced to put all in one line and cannot use the second approach of xsl:text, as my name value pairs actually are dynamic.
I simplified them for the sake of asking this question.


Here is what my href xsl actually looks like :

<a>
<xsl:attribute name="href">
<xsl:value-of select="$url"/>?a=b&amp;c=d
                                   <xsl:if test='$sOrder="descending"' >
                                       &amp;SORDER=ascending
                                   </xsl:if>
                               </xsl:if>
                                   <xsl:if test='$sOrder="ascending"' >
                                       &amp;SORDER=descending
                                  </xsl:if> <xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:attribute>
</a>

which is expected to be output as :
<a href="myweb.com?a=b&c=d&SORDER=ascending">Some Text</a>
OR
<a href="myweb.com?a=b&c=d&SORDER=descending">Some Text</a>


If my understanding correct that i will have to put all in one line. As follows :


<a><xsl:attribute name="href"><xsl:value-of select="$url"/>?a=b&amp;c=d<xsl:if test='$sOrder="descending"' >&amp;SORDER=ascending</xsl:if></xsl:if><xsl:if test='$sOrder="ascending"' >&amp;SORDER=descending</xsl:if></xsl:attribute> </a>

Is there another way ?

Thanks

You will need to do one of two things:

1. Put it all one line:

<xsl:value-of select="$url"/>?a=b&amp;c=d</xsl:attribute>

2. Enclose the text in <xsl:text>

<xsl:attribute name="href">
 <xsl:value-of select="$url"/>
 <xsl:text>?a=b&amp;c=d</xsl:text>
</xsl:attribute>


3. Use an attribute value template instead of xsl:attribute:


 <a href="{$url}?a=b&amp;c=d">
   <xsl:value-of select="." />
 </a>

Cheers,
