Re: <with-param> with non-text node

Hi Prashant,
I would do it as below --
1)
Convert the tree fragment to a node set first, using
the vendor:nodeset extension function.

<xsl:variable name="treefrag">
  <Parent>
    child1
    child2
  </Parent>
</xsl:variable>

then doing -- e.g. xalan:nodeset($treefrag)

2) Then pass the nodeset to the called template..
<xsl:call-template name="XXXX"> 
  <xsl:with-param name="YYYY"
select="xalan:nodeset($treefrag)">
  </xsl:with-param>
</xsl:call-template>

This way I can process the tree fragment e.g. --
<Parent>
    child1
    child2
</Parent>
in called template using XPath..

Regards,
Mukul
