Hi,
I have the following template:
<xsl:template name="get_attribute">
<xsl:param name="attribute"/>
<xsl:value-of select="@<<FIXME>>"/>
</xsl:template>
I would like to use the value of the attribute parameter passed into
this template as the attribute match expression in the inner most
select. But I am quite confused as to what the syntax is for doing
this. For instance, given this XML,
<foo>
<node attrib1="1" attrib2="2"/>
</foo>
I would like to invoke the get_attribute template as follows:
<xsl:call-template name="get_attribute"> <xsl:with-param
name="attribute>attrib1</xsl:with-param>
<xsl:call-template name="get_attribute"> <xsl:with-param
name="attribute>attrib2</xsl:with-param>
I have tried the following syntaxes, with no success. The parser gives
syntax errors.
<xsl:value-of select="@$attribute"/>
<xsl:value-of select="@{$attribute}"/>
<xsl:value-of select="@'$attribute'"/>
<xsl:value-of select="@string($attribute)"/>
Everything works fine, if I directly key in the attribute name:
<xsl:value-of select="@attrib1"/> and so on.
Am I trying to do something really stupid? Please advise. It sounds
like it would be useful to construct the xpath expression via
variables.
matt
