Creating hyperlinks

[me]

Hi,

I am wondering if you can transform 2 xml nodes that is a web address in to
a <a href> tag in a transformed xml/xslt. Using below as the reference:
<bios>
<bio>
<title>zzzzz</title>
<info>blah blah blah</info>
<source>Abe Lincoln</source>
<site>www.yahoo.com</site>
<bio>
.....
.....
.....
</bios>

The source is the what is in between <a href></a>
The site is the href part.

TIA

Aaron

Aaron,
Yes, Here's how:

<xsl:template match="bio">
<a>
<xsl:attribute name="href">http://<xsl:value-of select="site"
/></xsl:attribute>
<xsl:value-of select="source" />
</a>
</xsl:template>

HTH

Or just

<xsl:template match="bio">
<a href="http://{site}">
<xsl:value-of select="source" />
</a>
</xsl:template>
