RE: Keys off of variable xml source

2005-04-01 01:12:49

Is it legal to create a key off of an xml source stored as a variable?

No.

So the key decleration might look like:

<xsl:key name="myKey" match="$external_xml_source//data" 
use="some_element"/>

If not, is there a workaround?


Yes, just use match="data", and ensure that the context node is
$external_xml_source at the time you call the key() function.
