Hello List,
In my stylesheet, I perform two steps to generate FO. First, I dissolve any
references inside the XML source data, building an temporary result tree.
Second, I apply over the temporary result tree, generating the FO code
itself.
While dissolving the references I use saxon's "function" extension to return
the dissolved values.
To apply succesfully over the tempory result tree, I need to store any
information stored in FO as attributes also as attributes in the temporary
result tree.
Therefor I want to copy a string as returned from the function example below
into an element as a "attribute set": (X PATH is short for the real X Path,
that is quite long..)
<saxon:function name="fun:GetAppearance">
<xsl:param name="appearance"/>
<xsl:variable name="Appearanceset">
<xsl:value-of select="concat( 'border="', fun:GetBorder( X PATH ),
'" ',
'background-color="', fun:GetColor( X
PATH ), '" ',
fun:GetMargin( X PATH ))"/>
</xsl:variable>
<saxon:return select="$Appearanceset"/>
</saxon:function
Returns (for example):
border="0.5pt solid #FFAAAA" background-color="#CDCDCD" margin=""
margin-top="5mm" margin-bottom="7mm" margin-right="2mm" margin-left="5mm"
(There is also a concat in "fun:GetMargin()" !)
what I want is, for example, to put this string into an <block-container>
element.
<block-container border="0.5pt solid #FFAAAA" background-color="#CDCDCD"
margin="" margin-top="5mm" margin-bottom="7mm" margin-right="2mm"
margin-left="5mm" >
Is this possible? and when, how?
Thanks!
