Hi,
How do i read the value of the child element and print
the value of the parent element

xml:
<a>1
<b>2
<c>3</c>
<d>4</d>
</b>
</a>

I need to check for the value of [c=3] and print 2

You don't actually want the value of the 'b' element, which is '234' (the concatenation of its text node descendants. So try something like


<xsl:template match="c[.='3']">
  <xsl:value-of select="../text()"/>
</xsl:template>

which will get you the value of the first text node child of c's parent (b).

Cheers,
Wendell
