Hi, This should be on an XSLT list, but nonetheless:
XSLT templates can take parameters (declared by a <xsl:param name="foo"/> in the <xsl:template>) Hopefully, your XSLT engine allows passing parameters to your template. Alternatively, your could wrap your list in a <MARKET_PRINT print="market_to_print"></MARKET_PRINT> and add a template that matches this top element and extracts the parameter, before calling the main template with an <xsl:with-param> Good luck, Jonathan -----Message d'origine----- De : Thanos Panousis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Envoyé : jeudi 25 octobre 2007 17:57 À : [email protected] Objet : Change XSLT transformation on runtime (Object->XML+XSL->pdf) Hello list, I have an object CustomerList that holds a set of Customer objects; I turn this into XML and with an appropriate XSLT I can make a nice pdf report of every customer in it. So given a CustomerList instance which I can turn to XML using Xstream and a global-report.xsl file, I can make a nice pdf for every customer in that object. I would like though, to use the same CustomerList object to dynamically create different kinds of reports. For example, every customer has a "Market" attribute. I want to be able to make a "per market" report from that object using a xsl transformation. I would like to have the initial object with all customers of every market(which means the same XML tree), but in some way have different transforms that will only "look" at customers of a given market. For example, if I want to only make a pdf of the users of market "Paris", I can have a different XSL that will ignore all customers that don't have "Paris" as their market name, but draw a table of the ones that have. How can I make the selection of "market" dynamic? I cannot hardcode the name of every market in different .xsl files! Basically can I have one XML file that get dynamically transformed to different pdfs? I could of course change the initial object in the first place, and then apply the same transform to different objects, but that would kind of violate my design. I hope I am clear, thank you.
