Re:  why get the value not be calculated
Just use:

<xsl:with-param name="pYourName" select="YourExpression"/>

Also, note that in many cases it may be better to use
<xsl:apply-templates> and not <xsl:call-template> . Parameters can be
passed with <xsl:apply-templates> in the same way they are passed with
<xsl:call-template> .

Truly great madness cannot be achieved without significant intelligence.
---------------------------------------
To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk
-------------------------------------
Never fight an inanimate object
-------------------------------------
To avoid situations in which you might make mistakes may be the
biggest mistake of all
------------------------------------
Quality means doing it right when no one is looking.
-------------------------------------
You've achieved success in your field when you don't know whether what
you're doing is work or play
-------------------------------------
Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.
-------------------------------------
I finally figured out the only reason to be alive is to enjoy it.
