Sharepoint supports different types of columns, this column types are reffered as following data types
And I have either used or seen these used, but have not seen them documented anywhere:
This values can be used in XSLT.
Here’s a partial table of SharePoint column types and their corresponding “identifiers” and “tagNames”:
| SharePoint Field Type | identifier | tagName |
| Single Line of Text | TextField | input |
| Multiple Lines of Text | TextField | input |
| Number | TextField | input |
| Currency | TextField | input |
| Choice (dropdown) | DropDownChoice | select |
| Lookup (single)* | Lookup | select |
| Lookup (multiple) | SelectCandidate; SelectResult | select |
| Yes/No | BooleanField | input |
