Hi,

This is a snippet of the XML I am dealing with,

<LOG_MESSAGE type="START DATATABLE" date="03-04-2006" time="16:45:20" >

<MESSAGE_TEXT><![CDATA[\\gbahes75\Projects\AddressService\Datapool\GetTestID.sdd]]></MESSAGE_TEXT>
</LOG_MESSAGE>

There is a number of <LOG_MESSAGE> elements

My aim in the xsl in pseudo code is;

	IF THE <LOG_MESSAGE> ATTRIBUTE TYPE = "START DATATABLE" THEN
		GET THE <MESSAGE_TEXT> VALUE
	END IF

This is my XSL

<xsl:for-each select = "LOG_MESSAGE">
	<xsl:if test="LOG_MESSAGE[type='START DATATABLE']">
		<xsl:variable name="host2" select="MESSAGE_TEXT"/>
		<BR>
			xsl:value-of select="substring-after($host2,'\')"/>
		</BR>
	</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>

note: (I actually want the last field [GetTestID.sdd] of the
<MESSAGE_TEXT> but that is a different problem)

I am using XSLDebugger, but when I attempt to run the XSL I get the
error:

'A reference to variable 'host2' cannot be resolved. The variable or
parameter
 may not be defined, or it may not be in scope'
 
 And I am not sure why.

Cheers
