Hi Dominic, You can filter a template match by using attributes in a predicate (the square brackets coming after the element name). So, you can create two separate templates: <xsl:template match="section[@id='para']"> <p><xsl:apply-templates/></p> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="section[@id='url']"> <a href="{@url}"><xsl:apply-templates/></a> </xsl:template> You could also do this in one template, using <xsl:choose> to select the different options: <xsl:template match="section"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="@id='para'"> <p><xsl:apply-templates></p> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="@id='url'"> <a href="{@url}"><xsl:apply-templates/></a> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="@id='anAlternativeChoice'"> <!-- Do whatever --> </xsl:when> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> Hope this helps, Stuart > -----Original Message----- > From: Hanlan, Dominic - Senior Developer [mailto:dhanlan@xxxxxxxxx] > Sent: 20 June 2002 10:11 > To: 'XSL-List@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' > Subject: basic xpath question > > > Hi, > > I have an xml document to be styled, if I have a construct such as > > <section id="para">this is text <section id="url" > url="http://xx.yy.zz">which is to be a link</section></section> > > How do I, in xslt, recognise the "url" tag within the "para" > tag, such that > I could ouput someting like > > <p>this is test <a href="http://xx.yy.zz">which is to be a > link</a></p> > > Regards > > > > > XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list > XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
