Hi,

This list tends to be pretty active.  If you haven't gotten a response
to a posting typically it could mean a couple of things:

1)  You need to rewrite your message.  It's too hard to understand or
you need to simplify your problem and present it according to the
suggests sent to you in the email you got when you subscribed to the
list.

2)  Nobody honestly knows.  This seems to happen to the folks with
xsl-fo questions on a regular basis.

3) You're off-topic.  Doesn't seem to be true in this case, so I
wouldn't worry about that.

4) You're asking such a basic question people really don't want to
take the time to respond.  This question might be bordering on that if
it just boils down to "how do I pass in parameters"?

5) You're asking something processor or environment specific.  That
narrows down your pool of possible responders dramatically.  Or it's a
question people sense is a processor issue.  This also might be the
case for you if it really just is "how do I pass in parameters".

I don't know if you really mean "any" XML file.  Do you mean any XML
file following some sort of specifications?  It's hard to infer from
the above any sort of schema or form that the xml follows.  Or do you
really mean a generic grid, one that could take in any XML document
and describe it?

Ok, this is a bit confusing.  Parameters are processor-dependent.  You
can pass in parameters, but you need to check your documentation on
how to do that.  Do you want to match on any arbitrary XPath, or just
names, or do you actually want to pass in nodes for comparision via
the parameter?

Sorry, I kinda get where you're going, but the details seem a bit muddled.


Look at the FAQ for parameters.  You can then do a choose block and
produce output based on the parameter input.  I doubt you actually
want a generic grid.  But in case you do look at work like
http://skew.org/xml/stylesheets/treeview/html/.  That will take in any
document and display it as a tree.
