Adding attribute name to radio button using XSL-T
I've made an XSL-T file to transform an xml quiz into a form with tables, the problem is that as the questions are being created using recursive programming I can't add a name to them, so there's no way to know wich question is wich.
The XML file has elements like this one:
<question id="question2" filter="generic">
<foo>What console do you like the most?</foo>
<simple-election>
<option>Playstation 4</option>
<option>Nintendo Switch</option>
<option>XBox One</option>
<option></option>
</simple-election>
</question>
And here is the XSL-T file:
<xsl:template match="simple-election">
<xsl:for-each select="option">
<tr>
<td><xsl:value-of select="."/></td>
<td><input type="radio"></input></td>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
(the others part of the file has the start of the form, the table, etc.)
My idea was to add something like this:
<td><input name="question/@id" type="radio"></input></td>
But I can' seem to get it working, any idea?
PS: I can show you the rest of the file if necessary.

Try:
<input name="{../../@id}" type="radio">
Or, to make it more efficient, capture the id
in a variable:
<xsl:template match="simple-election">
<xsl:variable name="question-id" select="../@id" />
then use it as:
<input name="{$question-id}" type="radio">
See location paths and attribute value template for more details.
It works wonderfully, I'm pretty new to this lenguage and didn't know you could capture variables, thanks a lot.
