Subject: RE: [xsl] apply templates on a variable From: "Michael Kay" <mhk@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 30 Jun 2003 23:28:19 +0100 |
> Is is possible to apply templates to the contents of a > variable? I know this is kind of going backwards, It is possible to apply-templates to a node-set held in a variable. But what makes you think this is "going backwards"? It just means that the template rules will take their input from the nodes in that variable. The output of the templates will go to the result tree in the normal way. Unfortunately you describe what you are trying to do in terms of code which you seem unsure of. This makes it impossible for me to guess what you are really trying to achieve.
