Re: [xsl] variable rtf as querystring in document uri

[subscriptions <subscriptions@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi David,

the rtf shown was indeed just an illustration, but can be very big.

Do you know where to get the exslt node-set extension? It is not in the
source-code provided by exslt.org (though it is said on the website).
Others have found this out too.

Greetings,

Rob
