Hi David,
Thank you for responding with such detail and enthusiasm.
Your suggestion make sense but I still encountered some error messages that needed further guidance with.
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:ns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" exclude-result-prefixes="ns"> <xsl:template match="/"> <area> <xsl:for-each test="/ns:html/ns:body/ns:div[@id='content']/ns:p/ns:strong"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="contains(.,'Firstname:')"> <firstname><xsl:value-of select="."/></firstname> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <firstname>Unknown</firstname> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:for-each>> </area> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet>
XSLT Transformation output returned: Error at xsl:for-each on line 10 of file:/C:/Documents and Settings/Jack/TestApplications/: Attribute test is not allowed on this element Error at xsl:for-each on line 10 of file:/C:/Documents and Settings/Jack/TestApplications/: Element must have a "select" attribute
Any further suggestion would be appreciated. Thanks again, Jack From: David Carlisle <davidc@n...> To: netbeansfan@y... Cc: xml-dev@l...

So if the file, anywhere contains the string 'Firstname:' and it also has an element matching /ns:html/ns:body/ns:div[@id='content']/ns:p/ns:strong" then you do <xsl:value-of select="."/> which is the string value of teh whole document. a) you probably want to as on xsl-list rather than here and b) you want somthing like <xsl:for-each test="/ns:html/ns:body/ns:div[@id='content']/ns:p/ns:strong"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="contains(.,'Firstname:')"> <firstname><xsl:value-of select="."/></firstname> </xsl:when> so you are testing the strong element and outputting its content, not testing the whole document.
