Wow, I spent the better part of a day looking for how one could pass an entire test expression to an XSL stylesheet. It seems that the XSLT 1.0 specification doesn't support it but PHP 5 (and maybe 4s) inclusion of EXSLT allows one to do exactly that... simply add these lines... xmlns:dyn="http://exslt.org/dynamic" extension-element-prefixes="dyn" to the <xsl:stylesheet> element and when using an expression stored in a <xsl:param> element write <xsl:if test="dyn:evaluate($param-name)"> and viola! you can now use expressions generated externally in your stylesheet! EXSLT adds many useful functions that can be integrated into your XSL in a similar fashion. You can go to http://exslt.org/ to learn more... ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.xsl.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+48416 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48416&report=yes Reason: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48416&report=yes&reason=bad+code Reason: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48416&report=yes&reason=spam Reason: useless example -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48416&report=yes&reason=useless+example Reason: contains commercial links -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48416&report=yes&reason=contains+commercial+links Reason: useless note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48416&report=yes&reason=useless+note Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+48416&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
