Setting parameters within Nodes using xslt tranformations

[Lennart Isacsson <lennarti at screenbase dot com>]

Hi,


I'm having a problem with a xsl transformation of one XML document to 
another...
1. The document (the source) has 3 Nodes  I need to tranform into the 
destination XML document...

the source layout looks like..

<ODATA>
        <ID>3112213124</ID>
        <DATE>Tue Oct 31 13:58:46 GMT+00:00 2000 </DATE>
</ODATA>



the Destination should look like ...

<ORDER ID="3112213124 " DATE="Tue Oct 31 13:58:46 GMT+00:00 2000 ">
          the rest of the nodes here....
</ORDER>



problem 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
------------------------------------

I need to get the id data (which is simple) from the destination source and
create a new order node with parameters (which is the tricky part)
I tried somthing like this (which obviously doesn't work but maby 
you/someone can see what I'm trying to
achive ....


<xsl:template match="ODATA">

         <xsl:variable name="theID" select="ID"/>
         <xsl:variable name="theDATE" select="DATE"/>

          <ORDER ID="$theID" DATE="$theDATE" > ORDERDATA ... </ORDER>

</xsl:template>



sooooooo greatful for any pointers/help ,
