RE: Problem creating XSL Attribute!

If no attribute is created, this indicates that the df_data element does not
have a child element that is also called df_data.

However, if the df_data element did have such a child, you would get an
error, because there is no available element to attach the attribute to. If
you want to attach it to the <a> element then you need to generate it before
the xsl:value-of that generates the textual content of the <a> element.
