Hi Jarno

Thanks for the quick reply.

This attributes are part of the input xml. So what I need is to get the
value of this attributes using XPath.

Asunto: RE:  Can I use attributes with namespaces?

Hi,

>I would like to add new attributes to existing XHTML elements.
>For example <a myns:reference="...">. Is this possible and how

By just creating that attribute into the result tree. You can do it e.g. by
declaring the myns namespace in the xsl:stylesheet element and then adding
the myns:reference attribute using xsl:attribute.

>can I use xpath to access this attribute?.

With XSLT 1.0, not while you're creating the attribute, unless you use
node-set extension to cast the Result Tree Fragment that contains the
attribute into a node set.
