Hi, Andrea,

select="ancestor::flower[1]/@type"

either with xsl:value-of or with xsl:apply-templates.

It's Friday!  Please, have pity upon me and save my sanity!

Say I have the following style of XML:

<row>
   <basket>
     <flower type="rose">
       <basket>
         <flower type="tulip">
           <basket>
              ...
           </basket>
         </flower>
       </basket>
     </flower>
   </basket>
</row>

If I'm at node "flower" with type of "tulip", how do I reference the
previous flower's type?


Thanks!
