Subject: RE: [xsl] Problems passing parameters From: "Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 26 Feb 2005 10:20:57 -0000 |
<xsl:template> can't have xsl:with-param as a child. It should be xsl:param. I'm surprised you don't get a simple syntax error for this. Also, in contains(@href, 'http://www.hostname)'">, the closing single quote should be before the closing ")". Perhaps this isn't an accurate transcript of the code that failed? xsl:document was introduced in the draft XSLT 1.1 specification which never came to anything, though it was implemented in one or two products including Saxon 6.x. It's superseded in XSLT 2.0 by xsl:result-document. It would be useful to know what XSLT processor/version you are using. Nesting 8 levels of xsl:choose to pick up the first 8 steps in a URI is not very elegant coding. You need to use recursion here.
