I'm wrting xslt for my xml but I'm stuck while trying to read the ItemNumber from the root node. Here is the code snippet

XML

    <ProviderName>Cherub Baby</ProviderName>
    <Quantity>25</Quantity>
    <Price>7.99</Price>
</Item>
<Item ItemNumber="1148087">
    <ProductName>Dolby Metal-Black-Matte</ProductName>
    <ProviderName>Vestal Watches</ProviderName>
    <Quantity>4</Quantity>
    <Price>67.99</Price>
</Item>
</Items>

XSLT

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
     xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
  <html>
  <body>
    <xsl:for-each select="Items/Item">
    <table border="2">
      <tr bgcolor="#9acd32">
        <td>Provider: <xsl:value-of select="ProductName"/></td>
      </tr>
     <tr>
        <td>Item Number</td>
        <td>Quantity</td>
        <td>Unit Price</td>
        <td>Total</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td><xsl:value-of select="ItemNumber"/></td> <-- //unable to get the value
        <td><xsl:value-of select="Quantity"/></td>
        <td><xsl:value-of select="Price"/></td>
        <td><xsl:value-of select="Quantity * Price"/></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td style="border:none"></td>
    <td style="border:none"></td>
    <td style="border:none">Sub Total</td>
    <td><xsl:value-of select="Quantity * Price"/></td>
    </tr>
    </xsl:for-each>
    </table>

Given <Item ItemNumber="1148087">, ItemNumber is an attribute node which you select with XPath as @ItemNumber (or attribute::ItemNumber, if you want to be verbose). Your attempt selects a child element, not an attribute.
