RE: How to obtain parameters with the xsl?

Hello,

 I'm using jstl to parse the file. With this parser I can pass param to the xsl
by the way:

<x:transform xml="${xmldocument}" xslt="${xslt}">
  <x:param name="nodo_id" value="${nodo_id}"/>
  <x:param name="almacen_id" value="${almacen_id}"/>
  <x:param name="modalidad" value="${modalidad}"/>
</x:transform>

and after that I can take them on the xsl by this:
<xsl:param name="nodo_id"></xsl:param>
<xsl:param name="almacen_id"></xsl:param>
<xsl:param name="modalidad"></xsl:param>
<xsl:param name="prueba"/>

how Jarno has reply on his email.
