Subject: RE: [xsl] Named template param - variable not found From: "Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 27 Oct 2007 09:27:07 +0100 |
It needs to be <xsl:param> rather than <param>. It's an error in XSLT 2.0 to supply a parameter to a named template that doesn't declare that parameter. It's not an error in 1.0 - the parameter is simply ignored - so I'm surprised you're getting error messages from Sablotron or Xalan-J.
