Is it possible to assign variables outside of XSL which can
be accessed from within (during transformation). I need to
create extra elements in an XML file to hold values like
date-time, username, filename(can I get this from
document()?), servername etc........... depending on when the
transformation ran and thought I could do it using variables
(WIN platform). Or is there any suggested method to pass info
into XSL ?
Look up "stylesheet parameters". You declare them in the stylesheet with
a global <xsl:param> element. The way you set them from outside the
stylesheet depends on the XSLT processor that you're using.
