Yes, you look like your right. Sorry, I should pay closer attention to 
the standard.

Hi Kamal,



I guess that's what the specification implies by:



The following are all errors:

* Adding an attribute to an element after children have been added to 
it; implementations may either signal the error or ignore the attribute.

Although I might misunderstand.

Kamal Bhatt a icrit :



Not too sure if this is an oddity of XSLT or of my parser (Xalan in 
cocoon) but I found that if the xsl:attribute value is not defined as 
the first thing, it is ignored completely. Eg



....

<img>

    <xsl:attribute name="src"><xsl:value-of 
select="some-value"/></xsl:attribute>

    <height>12</height>

</img>



will work



<img>

       <height>12</height>

      <xsl:attribute name="src"><xsl:value-of 
select="some-value"/></xsl:attribute>

</img>



will not.



This may seem obvious to some people, but it actually wasted a lot of 
time for us.
