Thank you David for your template.
My apologies for not providing a complete example of my XML. In my quest to be brief, I did give a full picture of my problem. The problem is that there are multiple <nameloc> elements to interrogate. The template you wrote always returns the value for the child of the first <nameloc>. I need to interrogate each <nameloc> id value to find the one that matches @linkend for the current <HYPERTEXT>. I've tried creating a variable using <xsl:for-each>, and then evaluating that against the value of @linkend, but I end with the the first <nameloc> child "P3-11" each time. My sample should have looked like this: <document>
<nameloc id="M05-08.-HT1">
<nmlist nametype="element" dtdorlpd="BODY" type="PARA0">P3-11</nmlist>
</nameloc>
<nameloc id="M05-08.-HT2">
<nmlist nametype="element" dtdorlpd="REAR" docorsub="APPX-F" elemtype="ROW">item1</nmlist>
</nameloc>
<nameloc id="M05-08.-HT3">
<nmlist nametype="element" dtdorlpd="REAR" docorsub="APPX-G" elemtype="ROW">item2</nmlist>
</nameloc>
<nameloc id="M05-08.-HT4">
<nmlist nametype="element" dtdorlpd="REAR" docorsub="APPX-G" elemtype="ROW">item9</nmlist>
</nameloc>
<nameloc id="M05-08.-HT5">
<nmlist nametype="element" dtdorlpd="REAR" docorsub="APPX-G" elemtype="ROW">item36</nmlist>
</nameloc><STEP>
<HYPERTEXT linkend="M05-08.-HT2">Service
air cleaner assembly.</HYPERTEXT>
</STEP>
</document>Result to be: <step>Service air cleaner assembly.<link item="item1"></step> C Flanders Date: Thu, 19 Mar 2009 18:42:13 -0400 To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx From: Charles Flanders <cflanders@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Interrogating attributes values to get text Message-ID: <49C2CA45.60105@xxxxxxxxxx> I could use help with problem that I just don't seem to have the programming chops to conquer. I don't have template for anyone to analyze, I can't seem to get to that state. I'm using XSL 1.0. Here is my conundrum: I have an element <HYPERTEXT>, that has an attribute called "linkend". The value of "linkend" corresponds to an ID attribute on an element further up the tree (preceding). This element is named <nameloc>. This element has a child, <nmlist>. My goal is to convert <HYPERTEXT> to <link> (easy enough). But my problem is I can't seem to write an expression (xsl:if? xsl:when?) to can go find the <nameloc> element that has the corresponding ID, then get the text of <nmlist> as the value of an "item" attribute on <link>. The following are just snippets of XML. The entire tree structure should be irrelevant. Also, the <nameloc> and <nmlist> elements are eliminated in the results (not converted or output). Current XML: <document>
<nameloc id="M05-08.-HT2">
<nmlist nametype="element" dtdorlpd="REAR" docorsub="APPX-F"
elemtype="ROW">item1</nmlist>
</nameloc><STEP>
<HYPERTEXT linkend="M05-08.-HT2">Service
air cleaner assembly.</HYPERTEXT>
</STEP>
</document>
The result I need to create is this:<step>Service air cleaner assembly.<link item="item1"></step> How do I write a test will get me text of <nmlist> based on the comparison of "linkend" and "id"?
