RE: [xsl] sending parameters with apply-templates doesn't work?

[sara.mitchell@xxxxxxxxx]

The syntax is valid and should work, but I think 
you're running into problems because of document()
in the select -- this matches the root node of 
the document in $querystr, *not* the bookmarkedcategories
nodes. Do you have a template 
for the root node that also has the param? 
Something like this:

<xsl:template match="/">
 <xsl:param name="selectedcategory">
 <xsl:apply-templates>
  <xsl:with-param name="selectedcategory" select="$selectedcategory"/>
 </xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:templates>

If not, what is happening is that the param isn't getting 
passed to the template for bookmarkedcategories.
