RE: Global Variable

Hello Aruniima,

You will have to update your XSL knowledge, <xsl:param/> and <xsl:variable/>
when set, never change....

But isnt it possible to set the variable value based on some condition ??
like
<xsl:variable name = "myVar">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test = "some-condition"> some value</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>some-other-value</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>

If thaz what is required?
Vasu

Hello Aruniima,

You will have to update your XSL knowledge, <xsl:param/> and <xsl:variable/>
when set, never change....

this may be an odd concept to you, possibly coming from a world where we use
variables quite extensively this way.....

think of the days when we used GOTO statements...remember that with line
numbers ..... people back then couldnt believe that you didn't have to do
this... the analogy is similar to using variables.

check out the xslt FAQ at www.dpawson.co.uk for more information.

though it is possible that you are just asking on how to use <xsl:variable/>
or <xsl:param/>

once again, check the FAQ, and if u still have a problem then post your
sample XSLT and XML and we will try to solve the problem.

cheers, jim fuller
