Re: [xsl] Node selection based on parent attribute

["katharine wykes" <katharinewykes at hotmail dot com>]

If I use:
<xsl:template match="tree">
 <xsl:apply-templates select="menu"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="menu">
  <xsl:for-each select="menu[@id=$id]/menu">
        <xsl:value-of select="@id"/>
   </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>


with an xml structure of :

<tree>
 <menu id="1" countryID="1" description="Com site" href="">
     <menu id="4" countryID="1" description="My Buisness Type" 
href=""></menu>
     <menu id="5" countryID="1" description="Home Office" href=""></menu>
     <menu id="15" countryID="1" description="Small buisness" 
href=""></menu>
 </menu>
</tree>

passing through a parameter of 1 using:
<xsl:param name="id" select="menu"/>

Then it doesn't bring back anything, can you see anthing wrong with the 
above.

Cheers,
