# saxon:get-pseudo-attribute()

saxon:get-pseudo-attribute($att as xs:string) ==> xs:string

This function parses the contents of a processing instruction whose content follows the conventional attribute="value" structure (as defined for the <?xsl-stylesheet?> processing instruction). The context node must be a processing instruction; the function returns the value of the pseudo-attribute named in the first argument if it is present, or an empty string otherwise.
