Hi David,
You are right, it was a typo, I meant
<xsl:copy-of select="*@[self::attribution]"/>
has in Ken's suggestion
The inconsistency may seem clearer now, I hope.
ac
but isn't strange that you
can use
<xsl:copy-of select="*[@self::attribution]"/>
but not
that is a syntax error. I'm not siure what you would intended it to mean
so I'm not sure of teh correct syntax, perhaps
<xsl:copy-of select="*[self::attribution]"/>
although that is the same as
<xsl:copy-of select="attribution"/>
<xsl:copy-of select="*[@self::{$name}]"/>
it woul dbe starnge of that worked, {} are never special synatex
chaarcters in xpath. Theie only use in xpath is, like any character to
be part of a string literal.
Isn't this inconsistent from the language?
what inconsistency do you see?
perhaps you are looking for the xpath 2 attrubute test
select="attribute($name)"
David
