Thanks for the help. I forgot to mention in my previous post that doclinks
are not always directly under a document. In fact they can be any number
of nested levels deep. The code that you sent gets the doclink info fine,
but does not return @form or @unid. Any other ideas.

Please respond to xsl-list
Hi Brian,
Please try the XSL --
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/database">
<database>
<xsl:for-each select="document/doclink">
<document>
<form>
<xsl:value-of select="parent::document/@form" />
</form>
<unid>
<xsl:value-of
select="preceding-sibling::noteinfo[1]/@unid" />
</unid>
<doclink>
<xsl:value-of select="@document" />
</doclink>
</document>
</xsl:for-each>
</database>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Regards,
Mukul

I am very new to xsl and really struggling to get
the results that I want.
I am trying to convert an xml file that looks like
this
====================
<database>
<document form='formname'>
<noteinfo unid='abc'/>
<doclink document='1'/>
<doclink document='2'/>
</document>
</database>
Into an xml file that looks like this
=====================
</database>
<document>
<form>formname</form>
<unid>abc</unid>
<doclink>1</doclink>
</document>
<document>
<form>formname</form>
<unid>abc</unid>
<doclink>2</doclink>
</document>
</database>
The xslt that I have so far works well, except for
the following:
1) If there is more than one doclink in one
document, they need to be split
into multiple documents so that there is one doclink
per document. The xsl
below puts all doclinks in one document.
2) The form and unid attributes are output as
attributes and they need to
be converted to elements.
I have been able to get both of the above to work,
but not at the same
time. Any help is appreciated.
The xslt that I have so far looks like this:
=====================
<xsl:template match="/">
<database>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</database>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="dxl:document">
<document>
<xsl:copy-of select="@form |
dxl:noteinfo/@unid
|.//dxl:doclink"/>
</document>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<!-- remove all other text and attributes -->
<xsl:template match ="text()|@*"></xsl:template>
<!-- remove all documents with no doc links -->
<xsl:template match
="dxl:document[not(.//dxl:doclink)]"></xsl:template>
