Hello all,
I have a question regarding this recent post, and would appreciate some
clarification. Here's the snippet that my questions stem from:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!-- //
function callDetail(item_no)
{
<xsl:call-template name="detail">
<xsl:with-param name="item_input">
<xsl:value-of select="$item_no"/>
</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:call-template>
}
// End -->
</script>
At the point where the transformation takes place, the XSL processor has no
knowledge of the item_no variable, correct? The transformation is happening
before any javascript is realized, so how is it the transformation knows
about this variable? Is it simply passing *something* along to the template
to be used? How can the value-of be resolved? Sorry for the confusion, but
I am curious........
Thanks.

Yes, it is possible with javascript, but there's no browser-agnostic
solution.
If you consider IE and Mozilla are the only browsers where the original
poster's task applies, Sarissa[1] sould do the trick as the
"browser-agnostic" solution ;-)
Beverly will just have to use the Sarissa API to control the
transformation and obtain the result tree, then common DOM to inject the
it to the new window.

Drown the beat of time
Let my senses fall away
I can see much clearer now,
I'm blind.
