Pass xml document as parameter to xsl

Question

I have read a lot of post and tried a lot of things but still can\'t get the xsl to find values in the parameter. I started with java\'s sun xalan and never got it working

Answer 1

When you pass a parameter to an XSL stylesheet, the value is a string and is not parsed into a DOM. This is not currently possible in standard XSLT. There may be an extension that will do this but I'm not aware of one.
