Re: id() pattern

My file structure is as follows.

<yy id="test">
     <xx yyy="184"/>
</yy>
<yy id="test2">
     <xx yyy="185"/>
</yy>

<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.
