RE: URL parameters in xsl

Thanks for all your replies. None of these solutions work though. the xsl file won't recognise the url - is this because it's generated from an .asp file!

help!!!

Hi Martin,

My suggestion would be this:

1) Create a variable that holds the string after the = sign.
	<xsl:variable name="uidNum">
	<xsl:value-of select="substring-after(URL,'=')"/>
	</xsl:variable>

2) You can now use the variable in test
	<xsl:if test="$uidNum=1">.....then do something.....</xsl:if>
	<xsl:if test="$uidNum=2">.....then do something.....</xsl:if>

3) If you need the whole uid string then swap the [=] character for the [?]
character, and this will return [uid=2]

Hope this helps

Subject:  URL parameters in xsl


Hi all, am a newcomer to xsl I desperately need a way to extract the uid
parameter from a URL (eg. http://192.168.22.105/default.asp?uid=2) and use
it as a variable for if statements within xsl.

I've tried everything and while I can write the uid to the xsl template I
can't call it as a variable in if/match statement.

Please help! ;)
