RE: [xsl] finding the last element with attribute

["Kirov Plamen" <pkirov@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

That's right :-)
Your last element with "<xsl:if test="./@selected = 'selected'">" equal
to true is the only one element with "selected": "<option
selected="selected" >Exeter</option>". If u put into other elements
"selected" attribute with "selected" value, the result will be
different.
