Could you write an examle of the html you want? And maybe for 2 different pages so i can see the difference of the html ( if there is any )

Hi Anders

Sure, or i can try to examplify it more in depth:

I have 4 "main" pages, on each i sell a different product.On each page i have the same accordion menu, but i need a different menu-item expanded on each of these pages.

So it would look something like this if it worked like i want it to;

Product page 1 (href="pagename.aspx?expandable=0")
  - Subpage to Productpage 1 - same expandable parameter

Product page 2 (href="pagename.aspx?expandable=4")
  - Subpage to Productpage 2 - same expandable parameter

Product page 3 (href="pagename.aspx?expandable=5")
  - Subpage to Productpage 3 - same expandable parameter

and so forth..

My frontpage href should look like: www.mysite.dk/pagename.aspx?expandable=0

Hope that clarifies my original post

My first post regarding the <li> thing might be a bit misleading. Of course i want the parameter set for the <a> tag, so the parameter gets called when i click a menu link

Could you traverse up the xml tree until you find a node with the expandableUrl property and use it at the a tag?

Like

menuItem/ancestor-or-self::* [./expandableUrl][1]/expandableUrl

Hi anders

Actually i don't want to go up or down the three for that value. And i can see now that's my main problem.

The Xslt below works, but sets all hrefs according to the currentPage parameter value. So i guess i just need an if statement if the parameter field is empty, then it should not output the paramete value-of.

I'll try to fix it after lunch

    </xsl:template>

hmm this proved a bit more of a task than i seem able to handle :/

If i set the property of my frontpage to have ?expandable=0 to open the first accordion menu item, then the rest of my menu items will have the same url.

How do i get the other node parameter values to override that of currentPage?

<xsl:if... isn't really working out for me

current xslt:
