Hello Antonio!

Try shorter one :)

<xsl:template match="canal">
	<option value="{@id}">
		<xsl:value-of select="."/>
	</option>
</xsl:template>

But anyway it (template are you talking about) should work, what is the error message ?

I've tried to do the same but instead of A and HREF I was using OPTION
and VALUE. And it didn't work.

I wanted to transform
    <canal id="CP">Canal +</canal>
into
    <option value="CP">Canal +</option>

I'm using MSXML4 and this worked:

<xsl:template match="canal">
    <option>
        <xsl:value-of select="."/>
    </option>
</xsl:template>

But with this I only get:
    <option>Canal +</option>

Then I tried to apply Mike's answer:
<xsl:template match="canal">
<option>
<xsl:attribute name="value">
<xsl:value-of select="@id"/>
</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</option>
</xsl:template>

But it didn't work (the VBScript transformNode() method I'm using gave
me a numeric error).

This is what finally worked:

<xsl:template match="canal">
    <xsl:element name="option">
        <xsl:attribute name="value">
            <xsl:value-of select="@id"/>
        </xsl:attribute>
        <xsl:value-of select="."/>
    </xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

Why doesn't xsl:attribute works in the first try?
Is it something specific from MSXML4?

Thanks in advance
and greetings from Spain
 Antonio
