Subject: Re: [xsl] Reassinging attribute values From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 11 Jan 2006 13:21:43 GMT |
<xsl:attribute name="eid">{$newId}</xsl:attribute> Attribute value template syntax {...} can only be used in Attribute values, never in element content, and in XSLT Xpath expressions such as $newId never appear in element content either. Attributes (such as select) that take XPath expressions never use attribute value template syntax. So you just want <xsl:template match="topic"> <xsl:attribute name="eid"> <xsl:value-of select="string manipulation to get it how I want via checking xml:base, etc."/> </xsl:attribute> or, in XSLT2 <xsl:template match="topic"> <xsl:attribute name="eid" select="string manipulation to get it how I want via checking xml:base, etc."/> Assuming (in both cases of course) thi stemplate is going to be called at a point that xsl:attribute is allowed 9which means that you have just generated a new element node, but have not added any child nodes yet.
