RE: How to use xPath expression: /node/@attribute to retrieve attribute nodes in XSLT?

2004-12-12 11:46:57

Can anyone let me know why the following template rule, which
try to retrieve the attribute node from XML, cannot work?

It can work, but you must make sure it is invoked. A template rule that
matches attribute nodes will only be invoked if somewhere in the stylesheet
there is a xsl:apply-templates instruction that selects those attribute
nodes.

<xsl:temlate match="/company/employee/@empID">
  <output>
    <xsl:value-of select="."/>
  <output/>
</xsl:template>
