hi amrit
i think of a solution for you.. The gurus of the list please correct me if i
am wrong.
Here it goes..
From ASP Screen after u click on the date, you can pass this date value to
the server side program (may be to the same ASP ). In the ASP Code ,
pass on this to the XSL as a parameter.( when u call the XSL Processor)..In
your XSL,declare a global parameter , which accepts this..
for example your XSL could be along the lines of..
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:param name="ASPParam"/>
<xsl:template match="record">
<xsl:if test = "play_date = $ASPParam">
<xsl:value-of select = "record_num">
<xsl:value-of select = "record_title">
<xsl:value-of select = "record_artist">
<xsl:value-of select = "record_mix">
<xsl:value-of select = "record_label">
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
....
You have to see the documentation of the XSL Transformer You are using to
know how to pass the parameter to your XSL ..
