Re: [xsl] Passing an XML fragment as a parameter

Unfortunately, <xsl:text> cannot have child elements, and I believe that the 
interpretation as entities is happening upstream.

Someting like

<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes"><xsl:copy-of 
select="$NewAbstract"/></text> ?

Hi,

I need to create a transform for our engineers to pass an XML fragment stored 
in a SQL database into a document as a parameter. Testing this in Oxygen 
using XSLT 3.0 and Saxon 9.7.0.15 is super easy. I can just declare the 
parameter and then use the function fn:parse-xml-fragment:

     <xsl:template match="article-meta/abstract">
         <xsl:copy-of select="fn:parse-xml-fragment($NewAbstract)"/>
     </xsl:template>

Unfortunately, the transform has to work in an environment limited to XSLT 
2.0 (XMLPrime). Without the function, the angle brackets are interpreted as 
greater and less than entities. (Various semi-embarrassing experiments I've 
done to try to force the issue get the processor to complain that value of 
the parameter is xs:untypedAtomic.)

I'm guessing this could be solved by saving the XML fragment as a document, 
but is there a way to do it from memory?

Thanks,
Charles
