Whether or not you can pass a sequence depends upon the processor. You
can do this with Gestalt, as it allows you to pass any XPath
expression. But you can't specify the type on the xsl:param with the
as attribute, which is unfortunate.

Hi,
I am looking for a way of working with a sequence passed to a stylesheet
as a parameter. For example, I have an xml file as follows...
<root>
<user>
<name>Robert</name>
<name>Adam</name>
<name>Graham</name>
</user>
</root>
...which I want to pass to my XSLT along with a parameter containing a
sequence of values, lets say ('true', 'false', 'true'). I then want to
iterate through the name elements, only outputing something when the
corresponding value in the sequence is 'true'. In this case I would want
to return
<root>
<user>
<name>Robert</name>
<name>Graham</name>
</user>
</root>
What I have so far is this...
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="2.0">
<xsl:param name="my_params"/>
<xsl:template match="/root">
<root>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</root>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="user">
<user>
<xsl:for-each select="name">
<xsl:if test="$my_params[...] = 'true'">
<name>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</name>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</user>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
...which needless to say doesn't work, but hopefully will make clearer
what I am trying to do.
Thanks in advance.
