RE: how to delete an attribute after using it as a tes

After about 1 1/2 hr of searching the archives I finally found an answer
that works.  Does anyone have any tips on how to search the archives to help
decrease the amount of time it takes to search?  I am very new to XML XSL so
my knowledge of the syntax is limited.

Thanks
Noel
