Shravan PulijalaSubject: How to read a url parameter?
Author: Shravan Pulijala

My XML is like this (bookstore.xml):

<Bookstore>
<Book>
<Id>1234</Id>
<Title>XXX</Title>
<Author>
<FirstName>John</FirstName>
<LastName>Doe</LastName>
<Age>25</Age>
<Email>test@test.com</Email>
</Author>
</Book>
<Book>
<Id>1235</Id>
<Title>XXY</Title>
<Author>
<FirstName>Peter</FirstName>
<LastName>Pan</LastName>
<Age>45</Age>
<Email>test1@test.com</Email>
</Author>
</Book>
</Bookstore>

I need to build a drill-down report that displays the list of books in the bookstore, and a link on the title, which will display another page with the author details.

How can I pass in the book id or title to the second page and read it there?

I tried <A><xsl:attribute name="href">bookstore.xml?id=<xsl:value-of select="Id"/></xsl:attribute><xsl:value-of select="Id"/></A>

How can I now read the value of id so I can write a template to go to that node in the xml and read the author details?

I tried <xml:param name="id"/> but that didn't work the way I was hoping it to...

Thanks and appreciate your response.

Regards,
-- Shravan

You need to read it using another language, (perhaps javascript, asp, php) and pass it into the xslt processor. How are you running your transformation? eg. Are you using a XSLTProcessor object?

Nope... so far I just had the XML and the XSL files and rendered them in the browser(s)... I guess I'll need to figure out which processor we'll be running and go from there... Thanks
