 I'm attempting to find a single attribute and change it's value. I thought this should be simple, but it just doesn't seem to be working. Looking at the Rec it says that xsl:copy is not allowed to copy the attribute and change it's value (what it looks like in the archives that I found as well). So my question is, can I use the identity transform, then have a template matching a specific attribute and copy the attribute to the result, but change it's value? XML File: <test> <Element myAtt="test"> <child/> </Element> </test> XSL File: <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:apply-templates select="*"/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="@myAtt"> <xsl:copy> <!-- this is ignored and will not let me change the value --> <xsl:value-of select="'hi there'"/> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="node()|@*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()|@*"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template></xsl:stylesheet> Expected Output: <test> <Element myAtt="hi there"> <child/> </Element> </test>
