Use xsl to create HREFs in an xml document

[VBGuy2112]

I am looking to use an .xsl document to make all instances of the following tag example:
<folder name=&quot;Documentation&quot;>

show up as a hyperlink in my xml document. So I want &quot;Documentation&quot; to show up as a hyperlink in this example. I'm stumbling through this and so far have:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl=&quot;test.xml&quot; version=&quot;1.0&quot; >
<xsl:template match=&quot;folder name&quot;>
<xsl:for-each select=&quot;folder name&quot;>
<xsl:attribute name=&quot;href&quot;><xsl:value-of select=&quot;Url&quot;/>
</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:value-of select=&quot;Description&quot;>
</xsl:value-of>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


I'm very new to xml & xsl so please excuse any stupidity on my part!

Thanks.

<xsl:template match=&quot;folder&quot;>
<a href=&quot;{name}&quot;>
<xsl:value-of select=&quot;Description&quot;/>
</a>
</xsl:template>

if you don't understand anything just ask

Thanks for the reply. I'm not getting anything when I bring up my document in explorer though.

This is my document I'm trying to format:

<?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot;?>
<?xml-stylesheet type=&quot;text/xsl&quot; href=&quot;test.xsl&quot;?>
<drive name=&quot;C&quot;><folder name=&quot;DirectoryTree&quot;><folder name=&quot;Icons&quot;><folder name=&quot;Icons1&quot;/><folder name=&quot;Icons2&quot;><folder name=&quot;Sub1&quot;/><folder name=&quot;Sub2&quot;/></folder><folder name=&quot;Icons3&quot;/><file>MISC44.ICO</file></folder><folder name=&quot;Test&quot;><folder name=&quot;Test1&quot;/><folder name=&quot;Test2&quot;/><folder name=&quot;Test3&quot;/></folder><file>DirectoryTree.exe</file><file>DirectoryTree.vbp</file><file>DirectoryTree.vbw</file><file>frmMain.frm</file><file>frmMain.frx</file><file>MSSCCPRJ.SCC</file></folder></drive>

Do you know what else I'm doing wrong?

You can try the following xsl code..
You can send parameters to the page that you are referring in the following fashion.
&quot;Inputparam&quot; is the parameter and its value will be
that of ITEMNO .

<xsl:attribute name=&quot;href&quot;>

http://abc/dir/frmUserInfo.aspx?mode=viewdetail&Inputparam=<xsl:value-of

select=&quot;@ITEMNO&quot;/></xsl:attribute>

If you find any problems then let me know..

Hope this helps..
