Reference a sibling attribute

GIMME · Apr 10, 2004

We have :

<r>
<b>
<a type="edit"/>
</b>
<b>
<a type="submit"/>
</b>
</r>

When processing b elements what expression returns the
value of an a element type ?

Thanks.

I think, it is better to you just buy a good book about XPath and XSLT.

The path for your question is
a/@type

Same example, with the elements names swapped out...
r with html, b with td and a with input.

Alex's suggestion, translating into input/@type falls short ...

Care to give it another look? (Big thanks in advance...)

<html>
<td>
<input type="edit"/>
</td>
<td>
<input type="submit"/>
</td>
</html>

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"

<xsl:template match="html">
