Cgi sounds better. I don't have cgi server neither any scripting
experience in CGI.
I am trying to figure out hidden values attribute as well.
Question:
Can we not define global variables in one sheet and pass those variables
with some values to other style sheet?

One way is where you click 'order form' point this to a cgi and pass the
parameters on the command line. Another way may be using hidden values.

Subject: RE: [xsl] Passing XML data to HTML form
Thanks David for responding. Please find below all the required codes
and required results' description. Hope it will highlight well, the
issue I am having.
1.xsl, displays a link "Order it Now" when
category/attributeset/attribute[(_at_)attid=2]='Unrestricted'
This link goes to a html form (I prefer xml form!).
{
<xsl:when
test="category/attributeset/attribute[(_at_)attid=2]='Unrestricted'">
<a href="c:\1xml\request_form.xml">Order It Now!</a> }
Required OutPut
---------------
1) I want to display a prefilled form when user clicks on "Order It
Now!". Display will show the values of attributes "ObjId", "name" and
"description".
2) There will be few input fields as well like Requestor's Name, Email
address etc which will be entered manually by requestor.

Subject: Re: [xsl] Passing XML data to HTML form
I want to pass those values to a html form so it will be a prefilled
form.
I have no idea, if I can do that with xslt.
XSLT doesn't know anything about html or any specific xml language, it
just transforms a tree of input elements to a tree of output elements.
Your posting had a bit of html including a form element and part of an
xsl stylesheet, but it wasn't at all clear what the input of your
transformation is, what you want the output to be, or what
transformation you are trying to perform.
You've been on the list long enough to know the rules:
post small complete input xml document and small complete required
output, with some overall description of the required transformation,
then you have a chance that someone could offer some help.
