Works for me (see files below). Which version of XT are you using?
ht
----
Input XML:
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<doc>
<submenu id='baz'>
<foo/>
</submenu>
</doc>
Input XSL:
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl='http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl' result-ns='' indent-result='yes'>
<xsl:template match='/'>
<HTML><xsl:apply-templates/></HTML>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match='foo'>
<P>
<xsl:value-of select="ancestor(submenu[@id])/@id" />
</P>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Output:
<HTML>
<P>baz</P>
</HTML>
