I have problems getting a parameter passed using
apply-templates. In the W3C rec. and Mike Kay's
book I read that this should be possible.
Stripped to the core I have the following snippet
(I have only one xsl:template with mode="Xrevised").
<xsl:template match="/">
<!-- ... -->
<xsl:apply-templates mode="Xrevised">
<xsl:with-param name="xyz" select="1234"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
<!-- ... -->
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text()" mode="Xrevised">
<xsl:param name="xyz"/><!--<xsl:param name="xyz" select="678"/>-->
<xsl:text>template output:</xsl:text><br />
<xsl:value-of select="$xyz"/> <br />
</xsl:template>
The code results in a lot of lines with only
template output:
When taking the xsl:param element from the
comment part instead I get (a lot of):
template output:
678
just as if there wasn't an xyz parameter specfied at the callers site.
I tried this with msxml(sept preview) xt & Saxon and
all give the same results. Am I missing something?
Any help greatly appreciated.
