Re: [xsl] How to pass into an XSLT program an arbitrarily long sequence of parameter values, from the command line?

you can either pass it a single string then set your actual variable by
running tokenize($foo,', *')   or you can (in saxon) use the ?param syntax
to set the param using xpath syntax for a list of strings.

I usually do the first as it's easier to use and remember:-)

Hi Folks,

My XSLT program has this top-level parameter:

<xsl:param name="airport-identifiers" as="xs:string+" />

I invoke the XSLT program from the command line. I want to pass to the
parameter a sequence of values. I figured that this would do the job:

java -jar saxon9ee.jar test.xml -xsl:test.xsl -o:result.xml
airport-identifiers=KBOS,KJFK

But that didn't work. My XSLT program just thinks there is one airport
identifier, named "KBOS,KJFK"

Is it possible to pass into an XSLT program an arbitrarily long sequence
of parameter values? If so, how?
