Do have a look here:
http://www.topxml.com/code/default.asp?p=3&id=v20010323001030
This code generates a Xpath expression that uniquely selects any (type of)
node -- even for a namespace node.
Of course, Mike is right that if element names belong to a non-null
namespace, the environment to evaluate the expression must have exactly the
same namespaces defined...

hi, i need to generate the full xpath name (location) for attributes in
the
following xsl (see below).
instead of using <xsl:attribute name="name"><xsl:value-of
select="name()"/></xsl:attribute> which gets me the just the attribute
(field) name, i would like to generate the full xpath expression from the
root of the document (i guess it would look something like:
/......./Node/SingleForces(_at_)attribute_name). i.e. what do i use in instead
of: <xsl:value-of select="name()"/> to get the fully qualified name for
this field from the root.
thanks
<xsl:template match="Node/SingleForces">
<td>
<xsl:for-each select="@*">
<xsl:element name="label">
<xsl:attribute name="for"><xsl:value-of
select="name()"/></xsl:attribute>
<xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
</xsl:element>
<xsl:element name="input">
<xsl:attribute
name="type">text</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute
name="size">4</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="id"><xsl:value-of
select="name()"/></xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="name"><xsl:value-of
select="name()"/></xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="value"><xsl:value-of
select="."/></xsl:attribute>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:for-each>
</td>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
