How to Concat Parent tag with Child tag name in XSLT

Currently I am able to get parent and child node values but i don't know how to join them as single value

<xsl:value-of select="name()"/>  //gives child name
<xsl:value-of select="name(..)"/> //gives parent name

I want to do something like <xsl:value-of select="concat(name(..),name())"/>

so result would be Parent_Child

Answer 1

If you want to create a new element name based on that

<xsl:element name="{concat(name(..),'_',name(.))}"/>

Answer 2

There are multiple options:

• concat()

• Multiple value-of, like

  <xsl:value-of select="name()"/>_<xsl:value-of select="name(..)"/>
