xtd example for attributes

Hi,

I'm new to this mailing list and hope I don't post a stupid question.
I did neither find a solution in the FAQ nor in the mailing list's
archive. If this question was answered before: Please give me a hint
where to find the solution. Thanks in advance!

I got this xtd file (which I suppose to be wrong):
--- start ---
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
      "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
 xmlns:xt="http://ns.inria.org/xtiger">
<head>
  <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
  <title><xt:use types="string" label="title">Neu</xt:use></title>
  <meta name="generator" content="Amaya, see http://www.w3.org/Amaya/" />

  <xt:head version="0.9" templateVersion="1.0">
  </xt:head>
</head>

<body>
<p><a><xt:attribute name="href" type="string" use="required" default="#"/>
Link </a> </p>
</body>
</html>
--- end ---

The magic should be done in the last part: I want to be able to edit
the href attribute of an anchor / link inside the template.
When creating a new file with this template (using the current
snapshot "11.3 - Sep 9 2009") I find no way to change the attributes
value.

Please give me a hint how to change the xtd template file and / or how
to set the attribute's value.
Thank you for your time, kind regards,
 Philipp

As explained in the "Help>Amaya Help" documentation (section 9 Editing
with templates), the <xt:attribute> only impacts the "Attributes" panel.
In your example, You have to select the <a> element and edit the value
in the "Attributes" panel.
I just realize that the "Link" button of the "Element" panel should work
in that case.
I'll try to add that possibility.

Hi Irene,

Thank you for your answer!

I tried your hint and clicked on the link (activated the <a>
element?). Unfortunately the Attributes panel remained empty - I could
not set any attributes.
Please have a look at
http://picasaweb.google.de/lh/photo/N0jHeZFhnPBrjOLF-Usujg?feat=directlink

Thanks a lot for any other ideas!

Kind regards,

The selection is on the text and not on the enclosing <a> element.
Hit Esc of F2 key to select the enclosing <a>. You can also click on the
"a" in the status bar.

Note: In future releases, the "link" button will work even if the
selection is at the text level.

Hi Irene,

thanks again!

I thought intuitively that by selecting the text (which can have no
attributes) I could edit the attributes of the enclosing element. When
selecting some text (e. g. inside a table cell) and changing the
alignment this affects the enclosing element. I expected the same
behaviour for the attribute setting.

Kind regards
 Philipp

Yes, the text cannot have attributes. When the user applied an attribute
to a selected piece of text, Amaya generates a <span> around the text an
attachs the attribute to the new generated <span>.
