Re: global language parameter

And when you then find after distilling all of this out that you are always building your style attribute the same way based on added attributes, you can localize the entire processing along the lines of:

  <xsl:template match="p">
    <p>
      <xsl:call-template name="add-style"/>
    </p>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="another">
    <another-result>
      <xsl:call-template name="add-style"/>
    </another-result>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template name="add-style">
    <xsl:attribute name="style">
      <!--what is the margin component-->
      <xsl:choose>
        <xsl:when test="@render='this'">
          <xsl:text>text-indent:12mm; margin-top: 0;</xsl:text>
          <xsl:text>margin-bottom: 0; line-height:9mm;</xsl:text>
        </xsl:when>
        <xsl:when test="@render='that'">
          <xsl:text>text-indent:30mm; margin-top: 5mm;</xsl:text>
          <xsl:text>margin-bottom: 0; line-height:12mm;</xsl:text>
        </xsl:when>
      </xsl:choose>

<!--what is the language component-->
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="lang('sa')">font-family: 'Times Ext Roman';</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="lang('zh')"
>font-family: Mincho,MingLiU, Batang, Simsun;</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="lang('ko')">font-family: Batang, BatangChe;</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:template>
