ear All What I want to do is create a large number of variables, all with unique names, I extract these names from an xml file each time I transfrom it with my stylsheet. The varaible names comes from the parent node and the values from an attribute of the child. After I construct this variable I will need to access it somehow, ie $varaible, or key() or anything like this. I have experimented with key(), and trying to make dynamic variable and/or parameter names with no luck. The only thing I have not tried is to add nodes to the xml doc and then read them. I really do not want to write to the XML document though. The source below makes the following output: name="nameA_begin" select="x" name="nameB_begin" select="y" The idea was to make a <xsl:variable name="nameA_begin" select="x/> statment. Does anyone have any clever ideas? <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:output method="text" encoding="Windows-1252" /> <xsl:template name="page" match = "/"> <xsl:for-each select="//token"> <xsl:text>name="</xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="name(parent::*)"/> <xsl:text>_begin</xsl:text> <xsl:text>"</xsl:text> <xsl:text> select="</xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="@bmacro"/> <xsl:text>"</xsl:text> <xsl:text>
</xsl:text> </xsl:for-each > </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> <?xml version="1.0"?> <root> <nameA> <token bmacro = "x"> </token> </nameA> <nameB> <token bmacro = "y"> </token> </nameB> </root> thanks a bunch, kent XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
