Subject: Re: [xsl] passing param using value-of From: Wendell Piez <wapiez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 17 Feb 2012 11:31:37 -0500 |
This works fine.
<xsl:call-template name="myTemplate"> <xsl:with-param name="arguments" select="preceding-sibling::*"> </xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template>
But this doesn't:
<xsl:call-template name="myTemplate"> <xsl:with-param name="arguments"> <xsl:value-of select="preceding-sibling::*" /> </xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template>
Why ? How do I use value-of to set the value of a parameter ?
xsl:value-of generates a (single) text node. Depending on the parameter, that may be okay (or maybe not), even if the cases when a text node is good but a simple string is not even better are fairly rare.
Don't forget in the 2nd option that it's a text node child of a document node, whereas in the first option (using select) it's sequence type is element()* (i think)
<xsl:with-param name="arguments"> <xsl:value-of select="preceding-sibling::*" /> </xsl:with-param>
Cheers, Wendell
