Hi,

I have the following two tags in an XML file:
<Ref_Number>abcdefg</Ref_Number>
<Ref_Number_Link>c:\abcdefg.doc</Ref_Number_Link>

Is it possible with XSL to create an HTML <a> tag where the displayed link text would be equal to <Ref_Number>(ie:abcdefg) and where 'href' would be equal to <Ref_Number_Link>(ie:c:\abcdefg.doc)? In otherwise generate the following HTML code using XSL from the above XML file tags.

<a href="c:\abcdefg.doc">abcdefg</a>
 
Code:
<a>
  <xsl:attribute name="href">
    <xsl:value-of select="Ref_Number_Link" />
  </xsl:attribute>
  <xsl:value-of select="Ref_Number" />
</a>
 
ugh...

I have still yet to have success with <xsl:attribute>...

Try this as well...
Code:
<a href="{Ref_Number_Link}">
  <xsl:value-of select="Ref_Number" />
</a>
