Hi,
i have this code

<xsl:template match="@src">
 <xsl:variable name="imgURL" select="src"></xsl:variable>
 <xsl:attribute name="src"><xsl:value-of select="$imgURL"/></xsl:attribute>
</xsl:template>

But the $imgURL value is always an empty string
i'm trying to catch the src attribute from an <img> node (in an HTML file) and change it, but i need the current src value, so i can do some logic with it
Thanks

select="src" means select="child::src", it selects a child element of the context node. But within <xsl:template match="@src"> the context node is an attribute, and attributes don't have children. Perhaps you just want select=".". Actually I'm not sure why you want a variable at all, but you haven't show us all your logic presumably.

thanks for your help, it works now
I want to do some testing and parsing with the imgURL, but for simplification i didn't post it
Thanks
