The \xmlfirst{#1}{distance} yields 20, but how can the unit attribute value km be accessed?

\xmlattribute{#1}{/distance}{unit}
(probably, you need to make a real example. See xml-mkiv.pdf, chapter 3.6)

Hi,

Thomas, thanks a lot, and it is fairly simple if you know how to read 
the following (taken from page 22, chapter 3.6):

\xmlattribute {...} {...} {...}
finds a first match for LPATH at NODE and returns the value of attribute 
NAME or empty if no such
attribute exists

But now I get it, thanks!

Regards,
Gerard
