Re: Could the value of the select attribute of a xsl:p

Mr. Novatchev

Thanks for your suggestions.

As the matter of fact, using msxml3 I have tried the following two DOM approaches 
in writing the javascript. But none seems workable for me, I need your further directions. Thanks.

1. Jeni Tennison suggestions for Bharat dot Chintapally on Nov 18, 2000, 

			function gotoprev()
			{
	var XMLDOM = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument");
    
	XMLDOM.async = false;
XMLDOM.load("test.xsl");

	// <===Suggested by Jeni 
	var s =XMLDOM.selectSingleNode("//xsl:param[@name='pageno']/@select");
         
	//	s.setAttribute("@select",'3');

		alert(s.value);//<===    verify that  select value =1
        	s.value=2;     //<==     manually defined value =2
		alert(s.value); //<==   verify the select value=2
              alert(XMLDOM.xml); //==  verify the complete xsl:param in the xsl file}
         
        However; when returing to xsl file, the select value is shown unchanged,i.e.,1 ,why?


2.   Then I used the tip you responded to S.Fitzpatrick on Jan/19/01,to use the setAtrribute method.
      by adding  s.setAttribute("@select",'3'); to the above function.
      But I get the error message of " this property or method is not supported". 

      Do I miss something important in using these DOM approaches?

You can manipulate your stylesheet after loading it (but before
applying the transformation) as any other xml document -- using DOM.
Any attribute value can be modified in this way, including the value of
the select attribute of the element in question.

Or,

the named template may be called with different xsl:with-param 's as
determined dynamically within a <xsl:choose> element.
