  I have to programmatically modify an XmL file based on instructions given here

  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940958

  You will notice that I need to open a XML file called ONET.xml and then go to the element called Project.

  Now here I have to set

  DisableWebDesignFeatures=wdfopensite

  So that the Project element looks like

  <Project Title="Team Web Site" ListDir="Lists" xmlns:ows="Microsoft SharePoint" DisableWebDesignFeatures=wdfopensite>

  Now I wrote this code as 

  [xml] $dom = get-content onet.xml

  $dom.Project.SetAttribute("DisableWebDesignFeatures", "wdfopensite")

  But this created an Project Element like 

  <Project Title="Team Web Site" ListDir="Lists" xmlns:ows="Microsoft SharePoint" DisableWebDesignFeatures="wdfopensite">

  But this gave me problem and I checked with forums and was informed that wdfopensite has to be added without " marks like shown in first sample.

  I am very confused how can I set the Project element with DisableWebDesignFeatures=wdfopensite

  The word used was that this done as a Token rather than attribute

  but I have no clue of how to set a token programmatically using powershell.
