Re: element selection based on attribute value not wor

Hi Vinod,

You may also do for e.g. --

<xsl:for-each
select="communicationmethodsActual[@PURPOSE =
'PHONE']">
  <xsl:if test="position() = 1">
    <!-- display label -->
    <xsl:text>Phone nos</xsl:text>
  </xsl:if>
  <!-- processing -->
</xsl:for-each>

<xsl:for-each
select="communicationmethodsActual[@PURPOSE =
'EMAIL']">
  <xsl:if test="position() = 1">
    <!-- display label -->
    <xsl:text>Emails</xsl:text>
  </xsl:if>
  <!-- processing -->
</xsl:for-each>

<xsl:for-each
select="communicationmethodsActual[@PURPOSE = 'FAX']">
  <xsl:if test="position() = 1">
    <!-- display label -->
    <xsl:text>Fax nos</xsl:text>
  </xsl:if>
  <!-- processing -->
</xsl:for-each>

Mukul
