XSLT: insert value inside of html-tag

[Angus Parvis]

Greetings,

have a look at this HTML code:

<td colspan="2"><input type="submit" value="Submit"/></td>

I want to support internationalization. To do so, i define variables,
that contain the text in the appropriate language.

This works:

<title><xsl:value-of select="$text.title"/></title>

so I tried this:

<td colspan="2"><input type="submit" value="<xsl:value-of
select="$text.submit"/>"/></td>

But this does not work. How can I make it work?

Thanks for your help,

Angus

Read up on attribute value templates in an XSLT tutorial of your choice:
<input value="{concat($text, '.submit')}" ... />
In a result element like that <input> element you can construct an
attribute value by using an XPath expression in curly braces {}.
