Jingwen,

You are close. DATE[@FIND_VALUE] means select DATE elements that have a
FIND_VALUE attribute.

You want: DATE/@FIND_VALUE . That selects the FIND_VALUE attribute of the
DATE element. See the difference?

XPATH information within [ and ] is provided for context, not selection.

Good luck,

Richard.

PLEASE HELP!
I still don't have any luck yet, even after I tried:

Date: <b><xsl:value-of select="DATE[@FIND_VALUE]"/></b> <br/>

Thanks!
