Subject: Re: [xsl] Document function handling POST instead of GET From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 21 Jan 2005 17:33:40 GMT |
> Can i use the same construct for a POST method? You would have to use an extension function, but even then doing an operation like POST from a side effect free language like XSLT is slightly problematic. You have no assurances about the chronological order in which any templates are evaluated, only that the results of evaluating the templates are assembled into the final tree in the correct place. So GET is relatively safe and made safer by the fact that XSLT specifies that if you get the same URI twice in one transform you must be returned the same representation (actually stronger the same node-set) but tying down the semantics of an update such as POST is rather trickier.
