Re: [xsl] Variables and Values

["Ragulf Pickaxe" <jawxml@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Julian,

In procedural programming languages, variables are usually used to hold 
intermediate results during processing of the data. I therefore expect you 
to want to output some results depending on the value of variables. Andreas 
wrote a solution that did not require you to use variable's in the XSL, for 
the first question, and this is the way you should think, using XML/XSL. 
Thinking about the change of variables means that you still think 
procedurally, not declaratively.

If you show what you want to achieve, not how you expect to achieve it, you 
will have a better chance of help (using a minimalistic example of wanted 
output given input).

Regards,
Ragulf Pickaxe :-)
