using variable value in href XSL

Question

Hi,

I knw its pretty basic question but I have just started reading it...

I have a variable name

<variable name="NAME">
http://www.yahoo.com/&lt;xsl:value-of select="$someothervariable"/>
</variable>

and i want to use it in like this

I have used these two approaches but it didn't work

<a href="{NAME}">HELLO</a>
<a href="<xsl:value-of select="$NAME"/>

Any idea how to achieve this...

Thanks,

You need to combine your two approaches:

<xsl:variable name="NAME">yourValue</xsl:variable>
<a href="{$NAME}" />
