I tested the following, and it works:
<xsl:template match="Page">
<div class="col01">
<xsl:apply-templates select="Article[(_at_)layoutpos='col01']"/>
</div>
<div class="col02">
<xsl:apply-templates select="Article[(_at_)layoutpos='col02']"/>
</div>
</xsl:template>
By the way, the / in the match of your original doesn't do anything for
you. At best, your XSL processor will ignore it. At worst, it'll cause an
error.

[xsl] template selection based on attributes
Hi,
I've got a 2-column page where I want to display articles in. The articles
appear in both columns. Normally, I would create my XML file in this way:
<Page>
<Col1>
<Article></Article>
<Article></Article>
</Col1>
<Col2>
<Article></Article>
<Article></Article>
</Col2>
</Page>
And the XSLT is pretty simple to produce from here.
But I would like to declare all the articles in a single list and then
decide where to put them as an attribute as such:
<Page>
<Article layoutpos="col01"></Article>
<Article layoutpos="col01"></Article>
<Article layoutpos="col02"></Article>
<Article layoutpos="col02"></Article>
</Page>
And then in the XSLT file itself, find some way to iterate through the
list
and selectively display the articles.
<xsl:template match="/Page">
<div class="col01">
###Call template for Article but filter for col01###
</div>
<div class="col02">
###Call template for Article but filter for col02###
</div>
</xsl:template>
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks!
Wong
