Re: [xsl] Node selection based on parent attribute

That's really useful, thanks.

The ammended code seems to be causing Netscape 6 to crash.  Can you see a 
problem with the xslt:

<xsl:param name="countryID" select="menu"/>

<xsl:template match="tree">
 <xsl:apply-templates select="menu[@countryID=$countryID]"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template name="menu" match="menu">
	<div>
	  <xsl:attribute name="id">ID<xsl:value-of select="@id"/></xsl:attribute>
	  <xsl:attribute name="STYLE">visibility:visible;padding-left: 20px;cursor: 
hand;
	  </xsl:attribute>
		<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
	      <tr>
	        <td valign="middle" nowrap="true">
			<xsl:attribute name="STYLE">
			padding-left: 7px;font-family: Verdana;font-size: 11px;font-color: black;
	        </xsl:attribute>
			<a>
	        <xsl:attribute name="href">
		        <xsl:text>javascript:divCheck('ID</xsl:text><xsl:value-of 
select="@id"/><xsl:text>')</xsl:text>
			</xsl:attribute>
	        <xsl:value-of select="@description"/>
			</a>
			</td>
	      </tr>
	    </table>
  		<xsl:if test="count(menu) > 0">
			<xsl:apply-templates select="menu"/>
		</xsl:if>
	</div>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

I've got a recursive call in there.  But when I take it out Netscape still 
seems to be having problems.  My xml structure is:
<menu id="6" countryID="1" description="Menu6" href="">
  <menu id="7" countryID="1" description="Menu7" href="">
  </menu>
</menu>

Thanks in advance.
