[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Q: is there a "template" template?
 I am trying to greatly simplify my XSL code. I have a basic template transformation: <xsl:template match="control"> <xsl:text CONTROL </xsl:text> <xsl:apply-templates/> <xsl:text END </xsl:text> </xsl:template> I need to apply this kind of template to literally hundreds of different cells; i.e. I have other cells which require the same kind of template, except replace "control" with "[something else]". At the moment I have a huge XSL file full of these little templates -- with all of them doing the same thing under a different name. Is there a way I can write a "template" template, and have my code internally generate the actual templates during compilation? i.e I would have something like: the "template" template: PARAM1 - match specification PARAM2 - output text <xsl:template match="PARAM1"> <xsl:text PARAM2 </xsl:text> <xsl:apply-templates/> <xsl:text END </xsl:text> </xsl:template> make-template( "control", "CONTROL") make-template( "output", "OUTPUT") make-template( "blah", "whatever") etc... Basically, I'm looking for a template in the true sense of the word, as in the C++ way. All help appreciated, Aaron XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
