Hi,

I'm using Cocoon 2.0.2 here to process XML files with XSL-T stylesheets.

The relevant part of my pipeline is like this:

<map:match pattern="start.xml">
<map:generate src="start.xml"/>
<map:transform src="start.xsl">

<map:parameter name="test" value="value"/> </map:transform>

<map:serialize type="html"/>
</map:match>

start.xml contains several sets of data, which are very similar to each other. I'd like to pick one at a time and display it. For this purpose, it would be possible to write several stylesheets, one for each data set I'd like to process. However, I find it more elegant if I could somehow pass a parameter to start.xsl, telling it which data set to process.

Is it possible to pass "external" parameters a stylesheet?

Thanks in advance,
Ralph

Regards,


Joerg
