Re: Passing XML data to HTML form

If all you want the XSL to do is get the data from the xml and build a link
which points to a form then creating a URL and passing this to a cgi is your
best bet.

The idea is that one style sheet will construct the link.
When user will click the link "Order It Now!", that link will take user
to a prefilled form.

I don't think its possible to perform with one stylesheet only.  If it
is possible, then it resolves the issue!

What do you think?

Can the same stylesheet not just construct the form also?

Yes indeed.

I want to pass the data set obtained from one style sheet to pass it
to other sheet so it could construct the form.

Perhaps a unique global parameter for two sheets?

Perhaps other way around.

I have constructed the URL in its typical shape.  For example,
c:\1xml\request_form.html?id=xxx&modified=yyy etc

What I want now is to use the values of URL.
Value of id is set to xxx and modified which is set to yyy as an
input

to my form so I will get it prefilled.

So you have any example for that?
That will be a great help!


Ah, I think I understand now what you're trying to do... You have a
*query
string* from a URI and you want to pass the variables to your HTML
form?

I use PHP with XSLT processing so this is quite easy for me, however
I'm not sure which route you can use to GET variables passed from a
query string. I can pass a parameter array from PHP to an XSL
stylesheet but that's through a PHP function. I do that quite often.

I guess you just need something to GET the URI query string and pass
it into your stylesheet?
