I don't know what version of Xalan you're using, but Xalan-C++ 1.3 reports an error: V:\test\Astakhov>Xalan -v Xalan version 1.3 Usage: Xalan [options] source stylesheet Options: -a Use xml-stylesheet PI, not the 'stylesheet' argument -o filename Write output to the specified file. -p name expression Sets a stylesheet parameter. -v Validates source documents. -? Display this message. V:\test\Astakhov>Xalan test1.xml test1.xsl A literal argument is required! pattern = 'id($pMenuItemID)'(test1.xsl, 6, 41) Remaining tokens: ( '$' 'pMenuItemID' ')') Perhaps you should upgrade the version of Xalan you're using. The arguments to the id() or key() functions in a match pattern must be literals, so the Microsoft processor is correct in rejecting your stylesheet.

I have to work with Xalan and MSXML4. I have such xsl style: <xsl:param name="pMenuItemID"/> ... <xsl:template match="id($pMenuItemID)"> ... <xsl:value-of select="@caption"/> ... </xsl:template> ... It works excelent with Xalan but it doesn't work with MSXML4. I get: "id ($pMenuItemID)' is an invalid XPath expression." Why so?
