    Using href after pulling data from xml file

    Aloha I am relatively new to Xml. I am using xslt and using the value of function to pull data from my xml file. I need the value to be the href of a link.

    ie

    xml file element
    <link>test.cfm</link>

    gets read into xsl:value-of="link"

    <a href="<xsl:value-of="link" />"> ...more ..... </a>

    More should then be linked to test.cfm

    mahalo,
    brew

    You're either going to have to use an attribute value template or the explicit attribute creation mechanism.

    Attribute value template:
    <a href="{link}"> ...more ..... </a>

    Attribute creation mechanism:
    <a>
    <xsl:attribute name="href"><xsl:value-of select="link"/></xsl:attribute>
    ...more .....
    </a>
