Hello everybody,

I have the following xml structure:

================| code |==================
<VCS>
    <PATTERN id="chapter1" name="chapter one">
          text, child elements,etcetera
     </PATTERN>
     <PATTERN id="chapter2" name="chapter two">
          text, child elements,etcetera
     </PATTERN>

    <KEYWORDS>
        <ITEM name="schema"/>
        <ITEM name="menu bar"/>
        <ITEM name="dedicated"/
     </KEYWORDS>
</VCS>
================| end code |==================

VCS is the rootnode. The root contains 'PATTERNS' and 'KEYWORDS'. Patterns 
can be seen as chapters that contain content. Keywords contains a list of 
keywords that can exist in the patterns. I'm trying to build an XSL file 
that searches for each ITEM (each keyword) if it exists in a particular 
PATTERN, and then outputs a link to that pattern. I want it to output 
something (html) like this:

================| code |==================
<table>
[outerloop (for each item, 1x in this example)]
    <tr>
        <td>item:</td>
        <td> schema</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>exists in:</td>
        <td><td>
    </tr>
    [innerloop (each pattern that the keyword has been found in, 2x in this 
example)]
        <tr>
            <td>pattern: </td>
            <td><a href="id of the pattern">name of the pattern</a></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>pattern: </td>
            <td><a href="id of the pattern">name of the pattern</a></td>
        </tr>
    [end innerloop]
[end outerloop]

================| end code |==================
So far, I've came up with this xsl:

================| code |==================
<xsl:template match="KEYWORDS">
     <table>
          <xsl:for-each select="ITEM">
              <tr>
                  <td>item:</td>
                  <td><xsl:value-of select="@name"/></td>
              </tr>
              <tr>
                   <td>exists in:</td>
                   <td><td>
               </tr>
              <xsl:apply-templates select="../../PATTERN" mode="keywords"/>
           </xsl:for-each>
     </table>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="PATTERN" mode="keywords">
    <xsl:if test="contains(., @name)">
        <tr>
            <td>exists in:</td>
            <td>
                <a href="{@id}"><xsl:value-of select="@name"/></a>
              </td>
       </tr>
  </xsl:if>
 </xsl:template>
================| end code |==================

I've got this running when I using a static string instead of @name 
attribute in the test statement ('schema' for instance') The problem is that 
I don't know how I can use the @name attribute of an ITEM in the <xsl: if 
test....>?
How can I do this? Or is there a better way to accomplish when I'm trying to 
do. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,
Tim
