that's straightforward, thanks to the many good taglibs, but I
haven't found anything on checking the parameters in XSLT, is it
doable?
Well, the most common method I

xsl:param name=foo select='NULL'/
and then later say

There is of course an entirely different approach which is possible...
Have your XSP capture the required input parameters and construct some
