If the context node is a <cover> element, you can reference the <desc> of
the corresponding <fund> element as
../../funds/fund[(_at_)code=current()/@fundcode]/desc
Michael Kay
P.S. It's better to think in terms of elements as nodes on a tree, not as
tags. Every element in XML has two tags, a start tag and an end tag, unless
it is written in the short form <a/>, in which case it only has a single
tag. XSLT processes nodes, not tags.

Subject: [xsl] Referencing a lookup table
Hi !
I am relatively new in the world of XML and XSL, so my
problem has probably been adressed before. I have been
looking in the archive but couldn't find any solution.
Well, the point is that I have some XML-tags added to an
original XML message. The result looks like this:
<document>
<!-- original tags -->
<policy>
<cover>
<fundcode>1</fundcode>
<amount>120</amount>
<some_other_stuff/>
</cover>
<cover>
<fundcode>2</fundcode>
<amount>80</amount>
<some_other_stuff/>
</cover>
</policy>
<!-- addes tags -->
<funds>
<fund>
<code>1</code>
<desc>Fund 1</desc>
</fund>
<fund>
<code>2</code>
<desc>Fund 2</desc>
</fund>
</funds>
</document>
I want te create a XHTML where I select form the cover node
the funds including the corresponding description in the
added tags section.
I have been struggling with all kinds of combinations of
value-of and for-each elements but so far no result. Is there
anybody who can help me ?
Kind regards,
Gregor Sips
