Giro,

XML processing instructions do not have attributes. See the XML
specification, section 2.6 (http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml#sec-pi) They only
have a target (name) followed by data. The data may appear to be attributes,
but this is purely by convention of the processing instruction, and these
pseudo-attributes do not appear in the infoset or the DOM. Conversely, you
cannot use <xsl:attribute> to add an attribute to an element, since a
processing is not an element.

To answer your question, create the pseudo-attribute as you would any other
content for the processing instruction (see the XSLT specification, section
7.3, http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#section-Creating-Processing-Instructions)

<xsl:processing-instruction name="xml-stylesheet">
	type="text/css" href="toto.xsl"
</xsl:processing-instruction>

BTW, be sure to use the Subject line.

Cheers,
Stuart
