I have an XML document that I am transforming to HTML using an XSL sheet. At a certain point in the HTML I want to create links based on some of the information in the XML document.

This is what I have as a link:

<tr><td><a href="<xsl:value-of select="$mainLink" />">Sample Source </a></td></tr>

I know this is wrong because of the < > symbols in the href tag. Can someone provide some insight on how to have this statement work.



Thanks...Allen

Try

<tr><td><a>
  <xsl:attribute name='href'><xsl:value-of select='$mainLink'/></xsl:attribute>
  Sample Source
  </a>

This will create the HREF attribute in the <a> tag.

or cleaner ...

<tr><td><a href="{$mainLink}">Sample Source </a></td></tr>
