 I have this top-level param to grab a param from http: <xsl:param name="StartPointStr">.</xsl:param> The param StartPointStr is an Xpath string. Next I have this (which works) (1) <xsl:param name="StartNode" select="dyn:evaluate($StartPointStr)"/> Compare to this (which doesn't work): (2)
<xsl:param name="StartNode">
<xsl:attribute name="select">
<xsl:value-of select="dyn:evaluate($StartPointStr)"/>
</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:param>(1) works and (2) doesn't work. With two, I get nothing, empty node set. They should be equivalent! OK, wait, I see in the spec "The xsl:attribute element can be used to add attributes to result elements" ... so this must be an illegal use of xsl:attribute. But LibXSLT doesn't complain ... maybe this is just a case of inadequate error detection and reporting the in the implementation (I used to see that very often in C++ compilers...) simon --- www.simonwoodside.com XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
