RE: how to evaluate a dyna generated variable?

2003-09-08 02:13:23

Hello,
  I have defined the I18n resources with variables like this:
<xsl:variable name="lang.type.participant.1" select="'Absolute
Relation'"/>
<xsl:variable name="lang.type.participant.2" select="'Relative
Relation'"/>
<xsl:variable name="lang.type.participant.3" select="'Group
Expression'"/>

and in my stylesheet, I want to get the resource like this:
<xsl:value-of
select="exsl:evaluate(concat('$lang.type.participant.',Type))">
but it seems exsl:evaluate only accept variables that contain XPath
reference,right? then is there any way to do this?

Do it all in a xsl:choose/xsl:when in a named template, then call that
template each time passing in the type as a param:

<xsl:call-template name="lang.type">
  <xsl:with-param name="type" select="Type"/>
</xsl:call-template>

It's fine if you have limited set of variables, if they are endless you
may want to consider generating the stylesheet.

cheers
andrew
