I am trying to use an xsl:variable to store a previous
value of a starting point for me to draw some
information. The syntax goes something like this:
.
.
.
<xsl:template name="foo">
<xsl:variable name="start_x" select="5"/>
<xsl:if test="true">
<!-- use the variable and add to it -->
<xsl:variable name="start_x" select="10"/>
</xsl:if>
<!-- if i use start_x here it just contains 5 and
not 10 -->
<xsl:value-of select="$start_x"/>
</xsl:template>
.
.
.
I have read that xsl:variables are constant so it
would seem that I can not change the value of my
variable, but if this is the case then how can I work
around this problem? I need to store a value to use it
later and manipulate the variable?!
Thanks,
Bryan
