Hello Matt,
with this description only the question of the context remains. If a <mesg> element is the context element, your XPath expression should be <xsl:value-of select="/test/colors/desc[@id = current()/@grp]/@name"/> I assume this is what you want. "desc[@id = @grp]" can not work because both attributes refer to the <desc> element, which means the XPath is only true for a <desc> element, whose value of @id is the same like the value of @group. Regards, Joerg Kuhns Matt wrote: Sorry if I wasn't clear enough about what I wanted. My XML Sheet looks like this: <test> <colors> <desc id="0" name="blue"/> <desc id="1" name="red"/> <desc id="2" name="white"/> </colors> <mesg grp="1">Hi how are you?</mesg> <mesg grp="0">I am fine.</mesg> <mesg grp="2">That is good.</mesg> </test> In my XSL I am going through the messages and trying to match the attribute grp from mesg with the attribute id from desc. something like this: //test/colors/desc[@grp]/@name or //test/colors/desc[@id = @grp]/@name I hope this is clearer. Thanks in advance. Matt XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
