Perhaps it should be <xu:update select="/[EMAIL PROTECTED]'Bank of Test']/@name"> ?
Or should you have a <xu:replace select="@name"> within the <xu:update> ? But the way you have written it would seem logical... It depends on how we think the contents of the xu:update node should be applied to the selected node, i.e. what is the result-node of the selected node combined with the contents of xu:update? This result-node should then replace the node selected in xu:update, in my thinking. (In the actual db-workings, I guess you would just do the changes, I am talking, as always, about what conceptual view a user would have of how it works. I think it is very important to specify this conceptual view, then we will know what syntax-elements we will need.)
