Re: Setting variable based on passed in parameter

Hi Matthew:
  I think  <xsl:value-of
>
select="/one/two[three/four[contains(text(),$nodeValue)]]"/>

will display the value on the out .It is not to set
the variable value. you need set the variable value on
the same line which you define variable 
example:
<xsl:variable name="myvariable" value=""/>


on the xslt, you can't change variable since you
define it. so It is impossible for you to set the
variable value twice.

what you can do:

<xsl:param name="nodeValue">something</xsl:param>
  <xsl:param name="valueSearch">false</xsl:param>
     <xsl:choose>
         <xsl:when test="$valueSearch='false'">
            <xsl:variable name="initialResult"
select="/one/two[three/four[contains(text(),$nodeValue)]]"/>
         </xsl:when>
         <xsl:otherwise>
        <xsl:variable name="initialResult"

select="/one/two[three/four[contains(text(),$nodeValue)]]"/>
         </xsl:otherwise>
       </xsl:choose>
