Re: [xsl] XML transformation based on parameters

you just seem to be blindly guessing. evaluate() is an extension
function that takes a string with xpath syntax and evaluates the xpath
expression. something like "/a/b[1]" If understand you correctly you
are passing in an in memory tree representing an XML document, so
evaluating it as xpath is not going to work.

But it appears that what you have is not an in memory tree but a string
with the xml source. So either invoke an xml parser before calling xalan
and then pass in teh result tree as a parameter, or pass in teh string
as a parameter and parse it using an extension function if xalan has an
extension (saxon has saxon:parse)
