Hi David. This is more of an XSLT question now really, if I understand you
correctly.
You should use attribute value templates (i.e. curly braces):
<xsl:variable name="foo"/>
...
<cinclude:include src="{$foo}"/>
You could indeed use xsl:value-of, like this:
<cinclude:include>
<xsl:attribute name="src">
<xsl:value-of select="$foo"/>
</xsl:attribute>
</cinclude:include>
... which is a bit wordy. The "attribute value template" approach above is
functionally identical - it's just a handy shorthand syntax.
Cheers
