Re: [xsl] can you select name() of attributes?

grr it's much easier (in general) if you post a complete stylesheet.

Sorry! I tried to make it as succint as possible...

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">

<xsl:variable name="Doc1" select="document('doc1.xml')/Input/I"/>
<xsl:variable name="Doc2" select="document('doc2.xml')/A/B"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
<Output>
 <xsl:for-each select="$Doc2/@*">
 <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
 <xsl:copy-of select="$Doc1/@*[name()=name(current())]"/>
 </xsl:for-each>
 <xsl:text>Some text in the output element</xsl:text>
</Output>
</xsl:template>

Wow! This solution seems to exploit the very fact that I was complaining about - namely attributes with the same name overwriting previously defined ones. Very neat and exactly what I want.

Thank you!

(Seems I am in luck)

Best regards,
Ragulf Pickaxe :-)
