colons

is there a way to get the value of an attribute that has a colon in the name
of the attribute :

i get no repsonse of i try :  <xsl:value-of select="@xml:lang"> .  if i get
rid of the colon it works.  Is there some way to circumnavigate colons
(besides removing it from the dtd :] )?   Im guessing the parser is picky
about colons because of their placement in xsl: tags .....
