Atif SarfrazSubject: Passing variables to XSLT form
Author: Atif Sarfraz
Date: 11 Jan 2002 11:35 AM
Hi,

I am developing some forms using XSLT, and need some way of passing a variable to the forms through a Java Servlet.

For E.g. the sample code below selects the address for Borrower[1]. I need some way of passing a variable to it e.g. Borrower[x], and specifying the value of x as 1 or 2 depending upon the parameter passed through my Java Servlet.

{xsl:for-each select="HSCROOT/MORTGAGEDATA/BORROWER[1]/BORROWERRESIDENCE[2]/ADDRESS/Address1"}
{input type="text" name="Address1"}
{xsl:attribute name="value"}{xsl:value-of select="."/}{/xsl:attribute}
{/input}
{/xsl:for-each}

Can you figure out a way to do it?

Regards,

Atif Sarfraz

Hi Atif,

You could re-design your stylesheet using parameters




(!-- here is the
configurable part-->








select="."/>

Atif SarfrazSubject: Passing variables to XSLT form
Author: Atif Sarfraz

Hi,

Thanks for the answer. However the part that I want to configure is the value that you have specified to your variable p1 i.e. 2.

{xsl:with-param name="p1" select="2"/}

This value is to be specified through some user selection in a previous form, which is invoking this form. I mean that is the parameter that I have to pass to the above script from Java. Something like

{xsl:with-param name="p1" select="{%=request.getParameter("borrowerNo")%}"/}

Would it be possible to pass a value like this?

I assume that you are using java api inside your servlet to run the
stylesheet, so you should be able to set stylesheet's parameters using
the Transformer's method

public void setParameter(String name, Object value)

If you have XalanJ take a look to the samples directory, you will find
good examples

Hi,

Yes I have tried passing the variables but and they do get passed but I can't use them within xsl:for-each expression.

Previously I have been using the expression as follows:

{xsl:for-each select="HSCROOT/MORTGAGEDATA/BORROWER[1]/FirstName"}


What I want to achieve is to use the xslString defined in the expression below, in my select. I am receiving the actual expression from Java servlet.

{xsl:param name="xslString" select="'HSCROOT/MORTGAGEDATA/BORROWER[1]/FirstName'"/}

and now use an expression like

{xsl:for-each select="$xslString"}

However it give me the following error

Cannot convert to node-set.

Is there a way around to handle this?

You are passing the argument as string, try instead

{xsl:param name="xslString"
select="HSCROOT/MORTGAGEDATA/BORROWER[1]/FirstName"/}

Hi Ivan,

Thanks, Its working with the following code i.e. by defining it as an expression

{xsl:param name="xslSt" expr="HSCROOT/MORTGAGEDATA/BORROWER[1]/FirstName"/}

Is there a way to do some string addition in the above expression. I mean I receive some no like 1, 2, 3, ......, from Java within my xsl parameter borrowerNo. e.g.

{xsl:param name="borrowerNo" select="'1'"/>

I want to use this no to build the first expression (e.g. BORROWER[1], BORROWER[2] etc). How can I do that?

Regards,

Atif

Atif,


XSLT 1.0 doesn't support what you are trying to do: evaluate a string as
XPath expression.
The expr attribute is an XIS/Stylus custom extension. So if you are
using XIS you can do

{xsl:param name="pos"}
{xsl:param name="xslSt"
expr="HSCROOT/MORTGAGEDATA/BORROWER[position()=number($pos)]/FirstName"/
}

Or even

{xsl:param name="myxpath"}
{xsl:param name="xslSt" expr="$(myxpath)"/}

If you want to comply to XSLT 1.0 you should change you design creating
a template that match your Xpath and test the position:

{xsl-template name= "MyTemplate" match="HSCROOT/MORTGAGEDATA"}
{xsl:param name="pos"/}
{xsl:for-each select="BORROWER[position()=number($pos)]"}

{/xsl:for-each>}
{/xsl-template}
