Subject: [xsl] Variables scope - weird behavior of msxml3 ? From: "Oleg Tkachenko" <ost@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 22 Apr 2001 20:24:13 +0200 |
Hi! Excuse me if this is a faq issue. Well, local variables in XSLT 1.0 have block-structured scope, i.e. "...the binding is visible for all following siblings and their descendants" (xslt 1.0 spec). So, why the following xsl works in msxml3 ? (Saxon and Xalan reported an error, as expected). <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="/"> <html> <xsl:variable name="var" select="'some value'"/> </html> <xsl:value-of select="$var"/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> And output is: <html> </html>some value PS.
