You can't use xsl:value-of, or any other element within an attribute, use an
attribute value template:
<Worksheet ss:Name="{(_at_)id}">

Subject: [xsl] Transforming XML document to Microsoft Excel XML Format
Hi,
I m a xml/xslt newbie working to transform an xml
document to an MS-Excel xml format. I am having issues
creating an element with an attribute, marked in the
xsl file with "PROBLEM HERE". I need to have the
attribute of the "roster_report" element be included
in the ss:Name attribute value of the Worksheet tag
for the output, and it blows up when I use the xsl
I've specified.
Can someone please help me out how to do it the right
way ? Please help !
-Tom
