You need to post your translate_type template. What you have posted looks fine.

Subject: [xsl] how to capture a value returned by a template call into a
variable
Hi, all,
I have tried to search by keyword "function" or "template" into the mailing
list but there are no many enties returned in the results. So i have to
venture to ask this question in this list. If the question has appeared
before, please kindly bear with me.
I would like to modularise some common code as a function. But in XSLT 1.0
there is no function facility. My common code involved is to tranlate a DB
type into a java type. That is what i have done:
<xsl:variable name="java_type">
<xsl:call-template name="translate_type">
<xsl:with-param name="db_type" select="@jdbc-type"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:variable>
I intended (wish, actually :-) to capture the result into variable
"java_type". However it failed.
What is a better way to achieve this?
Regards,
Anthony
