I'm having difficulty figuring out how to perform something in XSLT 1.0. I want to be able to call a template at random points in an XSLT document, and each time the template is called it outputs a different version of a node.
Example:
<xsl:stylesheet> <xsl:template match="/"> <output> <xsl:call-template name="makenode"/> <tagX>data</tagX> <tagY>data</tagY> <xsl:call-template name="makenode"/> </output> </xsl:template> <xsl:template name="makenode"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="oddcalls()"> <tagA type="odd">data</tagA> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="evencalls()"> <tagA type="even">data</tagA> </xsl:when> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet>
<xsl:stylesheet> <xsl:template match="/"> <output> <xsl:call-template name="makenode"> <xsl:with-param name="param-name" select="true()"/> </xsl:call-template> <tagX>data</tagX> <tagY>data</tagY> <xsl:call-template name="makenode"> <xsl:with-param name="param-name" select="false()"/> </xsl:call-template> </output> </xsl:template> <xsl:template name="makenode"> <xsl:param name="param-name"/> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$param-name"> <tagA type="odd">data</tagA> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <tagA type="even">data</tagA> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet>
Obviously variables and parameters can't be altered once declared, and I can't think of a way of doing this with a recursive template.
