Yatin,
You could just pass the whole URI in as one parameter and write templates that
recursively extract the parts. It's a little tedious, but it can be done. I don't have
an example handy but O'Reilly's "XSLT" by Doug Tidwell comes to mind (because that's
where I learned the technique). I recommend having that book nearby if you're going to
do any serious amount of XSLT writing. HTH.
