I suspect this is an XML syntax issue. Change the inner double quotes to
single quotes as below.

<xsl:value-of select="archdesc/dsc/.//c[@level =
'series']/did/unittitle"/>

Subject: attribute value matching


Here's a quikie:
MSFT Site Builder workshop on XSL pattern matching has the following
example for matching attributes:

Find all bookstores where the value of the specialty attribute is equal
to "textbooks":

/bookstore[@specialty = "textbooks"]

Why, then does my <xsl:value-of select="archdesc/dsc/.//c[@level =
"series"]/did/unittitle"/> return errors in IE5.0 regarding whitespace
ommission? Adding whitespcae at the required point results in an error
of "missing equals sign between attribute and attribute value".

much obliged,
