Subject: Re: [xsl] How to pass an XPath as a param and evaluate it? From: Richard Fozzard <Richard.Fozzard@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 29 Jun 2011 17:33:37 -0600 |
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/> <xsl:param name="xpath"/> <!-- passed on command line as a param -->
<xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:copy-of select="saxon:evaluate($xpath)"/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet>
Thanks so much, --Rich
Is there a function or syntax in XSLT 1 or 2 that will evaluate the XPath at run-time?
No, but there is in XSLT 3.0 (formerly known as XSLT 2.1). See
http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt-21/#element-evaluate
To use this in Saxon 9.3 you will need to activate XSLT 3.0 using -xsltversion:3.0
Come to think of it, I think that might require Saxon-EE. In Saxon-PE you might have to fall back to the saxon:evaluate() extension.
