I am unsuccessfully trying to access the value of a passed parameter. The overall effort here is to open a linked document and provide the requisite path to the linked file to replace links to a generic http://hostname address with a local path (think of making a cd layout from a set of web documents based on an RSS feed). This is the relevant part of the stylesheet code. I seem to be able to access the value of the passed parameter with a value-of select statement, but as soon as I nest the call to the parameter inside a choose/when statement I get an empty string. It seems to me the passed parameter is supposed to be in context throughout the template, so I am unsure of why I can access it in one manner but not another. If there is another manner of accessing this information from the file itself without passing it as a parameter I am open to suggestions. Thus far I have not been able to find another way. Please help. <xsl:template match="item/link"> <xsl:variable name="test" select="../link/text()"/> <xsl:variable name=initial select="concat('/home_directory', (substring-after($test, 'http://www.hostname')))" <xsl:for-each select="document($initial)/> <xsl:document href="{concat($inital,'l')}" method="html" encoding="ISO-8859-1" omit-xml-declaration="no"> <xsl:apply-templates mode="internal_url"> <xsl:with-param name="initial" select=$initial/> </xsl:apply-templates> </xsl:document> <xsl:template match="@*|node()" mode="internal_url"> <xsl:with-param name="initial"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="string-length(@href)='19' and contains(@href, 'http://www.hostname)'"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test=contains($initial, '/')> <!--nested choose statements until I get to 8 levels of depth -not repeated here - --> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:variable name="level" select=concat('./', 'index.htm') <a href={concat('./','index.htm')><xsl:apply-templates mode="internal_url"/></a> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:copy> <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node() mode="internal_url"/> </xsl:copy> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> Jeffrey A.
