Alice,
It sounds like your user interface is one where the user types in an URL string. You could offer additional fields if they need to enter multiple name/value pairs (the only reason for an ampersand to appear in an URL). Then your xsl could construct the final URL, adding the '?' if any name/value pairs exist, and then outputting them with your own '&' and '=' characters placed between them.
Sample XML (constructed from text fields): <userURL> <baseURL>http://www.someplace.com/dir/page.htm</baseURL> <pair> <name>arg1</name> <value>value1</value> </pair> <pair> <name>arg2</name> <value>value2</value> </pair> <pair> <name>arg3</name> <value>value3</value> </pair> </userURL>
Relevant XSL: <xsl:template match="userURL"> <xsl:value-of select="baseURL"/> <xsl:apply-templates select="pair"/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="pair"> <xsl:if test="position() = 1"> <xsl:text>?</xsl:text> </xsl:if> <xsl:value-of select="name" /> <xsl:text>=</xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="value" /> <xsl:if test="position() != last()"> <xsl:text>&</xsl:text> </xsl:if> </xsl:template>
