Hi,

OK. I can't use variables or parameters in a href attribut in a <xsl:include>.

My problem is that I have lots of different stylesheets for the main-template (<xsl:call-template name="main"/>), and I don't want to write millions of different xsl's that differ just in one entry (<xsl:include href="XXXXX"/>). Is there an other way to solve this problem?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:variable name="main"><xsl:value-of select="/document/style"/></xsl:variable> <xsl:template match="/document"> <html> ... <xsl:call-template name="main"/> ... </html> </xsl:template>  <xsl:include href="{$main}"/>   </xsl:stylesheet>


Regards
Jonny

Including a template with a variable in the href-attribut doesn't work in this case.


Including and importing other style sheets is a compile time feature.
Parameters and variables are bound at run time. This means: you can't
use a variable or parameter in the href of an import or include. The
value is used literally, it is never interpreted as XPath or AVT.

Bu what did I do wrong?


Not reading the spec? BTW this is a FAQ. The XSL FAQ should have an
entry for this.
