Carlos,

It is not a choice to be made. Example 1 does not work because
xsl:attribute is designed to exactly what you are intending. In
particular, you can not place an xpath query (i.e. @url) in the output
directly. The XSLT processor does not know that is should be interpreted
as an xpath query. The same query in the select attribute of the xsl tag
is interpreted as an xpath query and thus works.

Hy there.
I would lie to know which version is faster for the transformer:

Example 1:

<xsl:template match="/">
	<xsl:for-each select="SITE" />
		<p><a href="@url"></a></p>
	</xsl_for-each>
</xsl:template>


Example 2:

<xsl:template match="/">
	<xsl:for-each select="SITE" />
		<p>
		<a>
			<xsl:attribute name="href">
               		<xsl:value-of select="@url" />
            		</xsl:attribute>
		</a>
		</p>
	</xsl_for-each>
</xsl:template>

In resume, what's faster: creating the text directly or using the
<xsl:attribute> for generating the text?
