Hi Mansour,

This works fine.

  <xsl:call-template name="myTemplate">
         <xsl:with-param name="arguments" select="preceding-sibling::*">
         </xsl:with-param>
</xsl:call-template>

But this doesn't:

<xsl:call-template name="myTemplate">
         <xsl:with-param name="arguments">
              <xsl:value-of select="preceding-sibling::*" />
         </xsl:with-param>
  </xsl:call-template>

Why ? How do I use value-of to set the value of a parameter ?

xsl:value-of generates a (single) text node. Depending on the parameter, that may be okay (or maybe not), even if the cases when a text node is good but a simple string is not even better are fairly rare.

Cheers,
Wendell
