I need to create links using dynamic values for both the URL and the anchor text.
I have column called URL, which contains URL's, i.e., http://stackoverflow.com
, and I have a column called Title, which contains the text for the anchor, i.e., This Great Site
.
I figure maybe all I need to do is nest this tags, along with a little HTML to get my desired result:
<a href=">
<xsl:value-of select="@URL">">
<xsl:value-of select="@Title"/>
</xsl:value-of>
</a>
In my head, this would render:
<a href="
http://stackoverflow.com">
This Great Site
</a>
I know there's more to it, but I haven't been able to clearly understand what more I need. I think this issue has been addressed before, but not in a way I could understand it. I'd be more than happy to improve the question's title to help noobs like myself find this item, and hopefully an answer.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
