Question

I’m trying to get xsl to drop a value into a text box via the html … something like

Name : <input id="Name" type="text" value=<xsl:value-of select="something"/> />

but that doesn’t work (didn’t expect it to) — is there a way to make this work?

Answer 1

There are two ways to do this. The normal way:

<input id="Name" type="text">
  <xsl:attribute name="value">
    <xsl:value-of select="something"/>
  </xsl:attribute>
</input>

And the shortcut:

<input id="Name" type="text" value="{something}"/>
