[xsl] Named template param - variable not found

2007-10-26 18:34:27
I have previously had no troubles getting named templates to work however I am struggling to get a fairly basic navigation menu to work. I'm using TestXSLT and when I attempt to process the page using Sablotron, Saxon or Xalan-J I get an error (along the lines of variable "currentPage" not found). Libxslt will process it but the result has a superfluous "<param name="currentPage">" in the body of the html.

An extremely cut down version of the xsl file is included below. I have tried using a select attribute with the supplied parameter (select="'Accounts'") but the result is the same. I have also tried modifying the test in the <xsl:when> block but that hasn't worked either.

Am I making a subtle mistake or am I completely off the rails?

Regards,
Matthew
