Re: Parameters in localized messages

  Where the number of <param/> tags and names of these tags are unknown 
  beforehand.



The usual thing to do in these circumstances is to have a single
parameter that takes an XMl document as value, that value can then code
an arbitrary list of information: you don't need an arbitrary list of
parameters to do that.


So, if your input document had 

<message id="msgContant" lang="en">Please contact <param name="name"/> 
for details</message>

and your stylesheet had

<xsl:stylesheet ...
<xsl:param name="x" select="/.."/>
...

<xsl:template match="param">
  <xsl:value-of $x/x/y[@key=current()/@name]"/>
</xsl:template>

so then you just need to pass in a document as teh value of the
parameter x that has all the values you want to replace
ie a document that looks like

<x>
<y key="name">David</y>
<y key="..">..</y>
..
</x>

would cause
Please contact <param name="name"/> 
to transfrom to
Please contact David

David
