Subject:  XSL value-of select question


thanks a lot for the help with my namespace/template
question!!! :-)

I also have another questions.  My input XML doc begin
like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?> 
  <moreovernews>
     <article id="_21985527"> 
 ...

and continues...
when I try to get at the value of <article id> by
typing: "  <xsl:value-of select="article id"/>  ", it
gives me an error message: 

XSL Error:processStylesheet not successful!
XSLT:pattern = 'article id'
Extra illegal tokens: 'id'
Xalan: was not successful

Is there any way I can get at "article id"?

THanks!!

Samina
