ah ... I see where I am getting confused ... your thread and Raymonds... let me see if I can be 'clear' the p:add-attribute match="//div[@class='section']" attribute operates on the default readable port and the select="concat('section_',position())" attribute operates on what is matched the behavior of the p:with-option select for attribute-value is defined by the p:add-attribute step text 'The p:add-attribute step adds a single attribute to a set of matching elements. The input document specified on the source is processed for matches specified by the match pattern in the match option. For each of these matches, the attribute whose name is specified by the attribute-name option is set to the attribute value specified by the attribute-value option.' that being said the pipeline will not work because both options attribute-name and attribute value are required. there maybe some holes in the spec here, but I think its probably undergone this level of scrutiny ... will have a check once I have a bit more time. hth, Jim Fuller On Tue, Dec 9, 2008 at 12:47 PM, David A.
