Hello all!

A quick question... for example if say main.html has a "select rating"
with values from 1-5 that increments by .5, i would like to take that
value in an xsl document and depending upon the rating that is in the
result set display only the hotels that have that rating.

a) you will need to use <xsl:param/> to get the variable inside the xslt
( no JS style control ...though you could use xslt to autogenerate the
javascript )

b)you would then use <xsl:choose/> to to a case style switch to do something
based on a value ( or use a xsl:if, or a key )

c) so I see an xml /xslt pair that calls itself; you could call the file by
having a onChange the select control to reload stylesheet of course you will
need to know how your particular XSLT processor takes in parameters

d) ther are a few relevent tutorials at www.topxml.com and
www.bayes.co.uk/xml ( if using IE )

e) consider your first free question used up, because this is something you
should read up about on your own ( get a book or goto XSLT FAQ )
