I take it you're saying that your source document has an attribute like this: <node something="value for your new attribute">? If so, it sounds like this one is pretty easy, even with XSLT/XPath 1.0: <disney> <xsl:attribute name="mickey"> <xsl:value-of select="@*[name() = $foo]" /> </xsl:attribute> </disney> or for super-short: <disney mickey="{@*[name() = $foo]}" /> You could also use [local-name() = $foo] if you're worried about potential namespacing issues. ~ Scott -----Original Message----- From: Christian.Sisti@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:Christian.Sisti@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, July 25, 2011 10:13 AM To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: A Problem with Variables and Xpath Hi All! It is possible to gather the value of an attribute using variable in Xpath? How? I have a variable like this: <xsl:variable name="foo">something</xsl:variable> and I am trying to set an attribute in this way: <disney> <xsl:attribute name="mickey"> <xsl:value-of select="./$foo"/> </xsl:attribute> </disney> where $foo is the name of an attribute of the source document. The (wrong) output is: <disney mickey="something"> </disney> while the desired one is: <disney mickey="valueof(something)"> </disney> Thanks for help! Christian P.S. I am using XSLT and Xpath 2.0
