Subject: RE: [xsl] XML as a string param From: "Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 5 Oct 2004 13:16:00 +0100 |
At some stage the XML string has to be parsed to turn it into a tree. I would normally recommend doing this outside the stylesheet, which you can do in Saxon for example by calling the method StaticQueryContext.buildDocument(). (There are other ways, that give more control, but that one's the simplest). The resulting document node can then be passed in using the Transformer.setParameter() method. An alternative is to pass a raw string as the parameter, and then parse it from within the stylesheet using the saxon:parse() extension function.
