Hi James, thanks for quick response and of course the patch!
We currently use the possibility of using arbitrary Java Objects in the stylesheet for various reasons. One is for example that for the session handling we did not want to use Cookies, so we had to use url rewriting. The result is that all links that are generated in the stylesheet have to be encoded of the actual response object in order to append the session id: <xsl:param name="response"/> ...... <a> <xsl:attribute name="href"> <xsl:value-of select="java:encodeURL($response, 'a_link')"/> .... Thanks also for the JSTL hint. I haven't recognized it yet. Especially the transformer tag seems to be valuable for me because I have exactly the problem of using the same stylesheets over and over again.

Hi Tobias The parameters values were Stirngs. I've just patched the code so that any object can be passed in to the XSLT engine. This fix will make it into the next nightly build. Though whether the XSLT engine is capable of using other types of parameters, such as HttpServletResponse, is questionable. Certainly handling DOM Nodes or Numbers is possible. In what way to you want the XSLT engine to use the HttpServletResponse? BTW the standard tag library, JSTL, now has XML tags which are based heavily on XTags and will ultimately will supercede them. It could well be worth taking a look at them; the original XTags design has been refined somewhat in the JSTL XML tags. http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/doc/standard-doc/intro.html James ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, November 23, 2001 8:31 AM Subject: XTags: Passing non String Parameters to a Stylesheet? > Hi, > > is there a way with XTags to pass non String values as parameters to a > stylesheet, e.g. the response object to encode generated links? > > <xtags:style xsl="a.xsl" xml="b.xsl" > > <xtags:param name="response"><%=response%></xtags:param> does not > work > <xtags:param name="response" value="{$response}"/> does not work > either > > <xtags:param name="response" value="{$response}" > type="javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse"/> would be needed? > </xtags:style> > > > Thanks -- Tobias _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
