<xsl:value-of select="@title"/>    for value of the title attribute
or
<xsl:value-of select="@id"/>    for value of the id attribute

Xsuse me John, but I think you do not understand my query...
I'd like to access the attribut IN the XML DOCUMENT, and set it with the XSL
stylesheet.
(like the <xsl:value-of select='card'> but not the content of the tag
<card>, just the attribut "id" that is in <card id='menuCard'>...
So how can I recover this "id" attribut in the XML source ?

How to access xml tag attribute with XSL ?

Posted by Benoit Fouche <b....@cross-systems.com>.
Hi,
I'm novice with XSL, and I'd like to know if it's posible to access to an
XML tag attribute using an XSL stylesheet associated with the XML doc ?

example:
    xml doc:
    <card id='menuCard' title='menu1'>
        <p align='left'>
            Hello guys !
        </p>
    </card>

    So, I would like to access to the "id" and "title" attributes of the tag
<card>...

I've writing this for the XSL stylesheet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl">

<xsl:template match="/">
  <HTML>
  <BODY>
    <xsl:for-each select="wml/card">
    ...here i want to write the title of card...
    <p align="center">
          <xsl:apply-templates/>
     </p>
    </xsl:for-each>
  </BODY>
  </HTML>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Thank for helping me !
Ben.

No, it doesn't: in the code you want the char '&' not the chars '&amp;'
which is what you're doing.

'&&'

can be escaped as

&amp;&amp;

or

<![CDATA[&&]]>

BTW, I even if CDATA sections look _really_ ugly, I suggest to use them
around your code such as

 <code><![CDATA[
  if ((a < 0) && (b > 10)) {
    do.something();
  }
 ]]></code>

which is, to me, the more understandable way to mix code and XML (which
is almost never a pretty thing for XML design choices)

I use the following:

<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">&amp;</xsl:text>

It works, but there must be a more elegant way!
