using xpath, how do I find an element, with a specific
attribute (say <tab state="on">), and then grab it's
preceding and/or following element's (child or
sibling) 'id' attribute? (say <tab id="1.2.3">)
...assuming this xml:
<tab state="on">
<tab id="1.2.3" state="off"></tab>
<tab id="1.2.4" state="on"></tab>
</tab>
...i tried:
<xsl:variable name="prev"
select="preceding-sibling::tab[@state='on']/@id"/>
but i am getting errors.
please help!
thanks,
=====
