Hi Beth,
With XSLT, you can match on just the attribute.
For example:
<xsl:template match=â@docâ>â..</xsl:template>
You may need to select different actions (for example if the element is a block vs. an inline element), but you probably wonât need to duplicate the code for every element.
You can also match multiple elements with the same match attribute, for example:
<xsl:template match=âpara[@doc=âFATâ] | row[@doc=âFAT']â/>â</xsl:template>
I hope that helps,
Dick Hamilton

I currently have stylesheets that pull out the profiled information as needed, and I want to create a new stylesheet that uses the same attributes, does not profile, and colors the profiled sections.
