Re: Mapping Values.

Hi Amal,
   Please try this stylesheet. It uses identity template along with
templates for other rules.

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">

<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" />

<xsl:template match="node() | @*">
    <xsl:copy>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="node() | @*" />
    </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="@*[. = 'abcd']">
    <xsl:attribute name="{name()}">1</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="@*[(. = 'xxxx') or (. = 'yyyy')]">
    <xsl:attribute name="{name()}">2</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="@*[. = 'aaaa']">
    <xsl:attribute name="{name()}">3</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Regards,
Mukul
