Hi, I have what I hope is an easy issue to solve but my varying attempts to do so have not been successful. I have an xsl stylesheet which transforms some xml into another xml format. I only wish to generate XML in the output xml file if attributes in the src xml exist. At present I have a number of <xsl:if test......> directives to check if an attribute is present before processing. I would like to remove the need for the <xsl:if test......> and want to call a template to do the check and process if need be..... My template is <!-- Helper template that only pushes out out XML if value of attribute to publish is not null --> <xsl:template name="checkAttributeNotNull"> <xsl:param name="attributeName"/> <xsl:param name="attributeValue"/> <xsl:if test="$attributeValue"> <xsl:attribute name="{$attributeName}"> <xsl:value-of select="$attributeValue" /> </xsl:attribute> </xsl:if> </xsl:template> And I call if via : <xsl:call-template name="checkAttributeNotNull"> <xsl:with-param name="attributeName" select="anAttName"/> <xsl:with-param name="attributeValue" select="anAttValue"/> </xsl:call-template> The problem I have is within the template I call. I cannot seem to set the name of the attribute I am trying to create with the parameter 'attributeName'. ( i.e with <xsl:attribute name="{$attributeName}">) I have tried all sorts of combinations except for the correct one. I thought I could set this value at runtime ????? Any pointers appreciated.
