XSLT <xsl:with-param> Element

Complete XSLT Element Reference

Definition and Usage

The <xsl:with-param> element defines the value of a parameter to be passed into a template.

Note: The value of the name attribute of <xsl:with-param> must match a name in an <xsl:param> element (the <xsl:with-param> element is ignored if there is no match).

Note: The <xsl:with-param> element is allowed within <xsl:apply-templates> and <xsl:call-template>.

Tip: You can add a value to the parameter by the content of the <xsl:with-param> element OR by the select attribute!

Syntax

<xsl:with-param
name="name"
select="expression">

  <!-- Content:template -->

</xsl:with-param>
