My file structure is as follows.
<yy id="test">
<xx yyy="184"/>
</yy>
<yy id="test2">
<xx yyy="185"/>
</yy>
Then <xsl:value-of select="id('test')/xx"/> should output "" (the
content of element xx), and <xsl:value-of select="id('test')/xx/@yyy"/>
should output "184".

Please respond to xsl-list
<xsl:attribute name="path"><xsl:value-of select="id('test')/xx"/></
xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="path"><xsl:value-of
select="id('test')/xx/@yyy"/></ xsl:attribute>
Am I doing something incorrect?
well the xpath's you state are valid xpath's but whether or
not they should generate any non empty string as a result
depends on the input document...
they should work if yy has an id attribute of type ID
attribute and your input looks like
<yy id="test">
<xx yyy="foo">bar</xx>
</yy>
you should get path="bar" and path="foo" respectively.
