Doing a double-pass in XSL?

Question

Is it possible to store the output of an XSL transformation in some sort of variable and then perform an additional transformation on the variable\'s contents? (All in one X

Answer 1

XSLT 2.0 Solution :

The trick here, is to use mode="firstPassResult" for the first pass while all the templates for the sedond pass should have mode="secondPass".

Edit:

Example :

  Init



  
  

  
    
  

  
      
        
          
        
      
  

  
    
  

  
    
      
    
  

Output :

[xslt] Init

So the first pass creates some elements with the content of root/a and the second one prints the created elements to std out. Hopefully this is enough to get you going.
