Hi Dave, 1. I'm using VC7.1.3088 (.Net framework SP1) on Windows XP Professional.
2. Here I did not put it correctly. (pls. forgive me as I'm quite new to XML, Xalan and XPath). Pls. see the problem I'm into below: I have some XML like: <A> <B> <C1 id="id1">1</C1> <C2 id="id2">2</C2> </B> <D id="id('id1')">3</D> </A> When I give XPath expression like : /A/D/@id , I need to get value 1. The value 1 will be coming from the element C1 whose id is "id1". Please let me know how I can do the same, and how I can get the desired value using the sample applications with Xalan. Currently I'm getting the string output id('id1'). In fact I need to get value 1 (this corresponds to the value of the element whose id is id1). Please note that in my previous mail I mentioned that it worked for other tools, but that is NOT correct. I gave a wrong expression. Sorry about that. Best Regards.
