That's because in XPath 1.0 compatibility mode, only the first item in the sequence will be considered. Xiaocun> What does that error mean? The error means that the expression Class/@classname contains more than one item. This would be the case if the context node has multiple Class children. Xiaocun> How do I check if an Xiaocun> attribute contains a keyword in XSLT2? Well, you could just change: <xsl:variable name="vClassName" select="Class/@classname"/> to <xsl:variable name="vClassName" select="Class[1]/@classname"/> and you will then get the same behaviour as XSLT 1.0. But I suspect this isn't what you really want. Perhaps you want to check every item in Class/@classname, in which case you might want an xsl:for-each loop over select="Class" and call contains(@classname, $vKeyword) from within the loop. -- Colin Adams Preston Lancashire
