Thank you Jeni, {.} works a treat. I knew there had to be an easy answer.

Hi John,
I have the following xml and xsl stylesheet that I am using xinclude
and xpointer with. However, I can not figure out how include the
value of <xsl:value-of select="."/> in my xinclude's href attribute.
(the $filename variable is only a placeholder for where I want the
value-of select to go and is not actually code, although I have
tried using $filename as a variable.)
Use an attribute value template. If you put {}s around an XPath
embedded in a (literal) attribute value, the XPath will be evaluated
and the result inserted in the attribute value. Try:
<xi:include
href="http://kun.rte.ie:8080/cocoon/static/{$filename}#xpointer(//NewsLines/HeadLine)" />
to insert the value of the $filename variable, or:
<xi:include
href="http://kun.rte.ie:8080/cocoon/static/{.}#xpointer(//NewsLines/HeadLine)" />
to insert the value of the current node.
Cheers,
Jeni
