thanks for the answer. But, my problem is that I cannot use the for-each
loop as it will fetch only one element at a time.
But, I want all the matching "PHONE" attribute "communicationmethodsActual"
elements at once and likewise for
"EMAIL", "FAX" etc. One such reason for this is that I want to print the
label "phone" , "email" only once for a group of
such elements, and that is possible only if I get all the related elements
in one go and I use the "position()" function to
check for "position() = 1" and print the label.
tia.

working - xsl, fop, pdf
Hi Vinod,
the syntax you have posted is correct.. don't know why
its not working. You may also try --
<xsl:for-each select="communicationmethodsActual">
<xsl:if test="@PURPOSE = 'PHONE'">
<!-- some processing -->
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="@PURPOSE = 'EMAIL'">
<!-- some processing -->
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="@PURPOSE = 'FAX'">
<!-- some processing -->
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
But your way looks more elegant..
Regards,
Mukul
<xsl:apply-templates
select="communicationmethodsActual[(_at_)PURPOSE='PHONE']"/>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="communicationmethodsActual[(_at_)PURPOSE='FAX']"/>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="communicationmethodsActual[(_at_)PURPOSE='EMAIL']"/>
But, the apply-templates with attribute selection is
not working. It doesn't select any node wih the
above syntax.
