Re: [xsl] variable

[James Melton <james dot melton at cylogix dot com>]

No, variables are immutable. You can try a recursive style where a
parameter is recalculated as you recurse. Or if its a matter of
end-cases as your example implies you can call a template with a
parameter whose value is conditionally specified.
