Re: [xsl] Dillemma when creating an XSL template ... how do I do this?

[Chris Gow <cgow at digitalfairway dot com>]

Try this:

    <xsl:template match="email">
         <xsl:element name="a">
            <xsl:attribute name="href"><xsl:value-of 
select="."/></xsl:attribute>
            <xsl:value-of select="." />
         </xsl:element>
    </xsl:template>

Same for url.

Hope this helps

Chris
