You can use <xsl:param/> insted of <xsl:variable/> and call the template
recursively for changing value of parameter.
Try the following:
<xsl:template name="foo">
<xsl:param name="start_x">5</xsl:param>
<xsl:param name="check_need">yes</xsl:param>
<xsl:if test="$check_need = 'yes'">
<xsl:if test="true()">
<!-- use the variable and add to it -->
<xsl:call-template name="foo">
<xsl:with-param name="start_x">10</xsl:with-param>
<xsl:with-param name="check_need">no</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>

Subject: [xsl] xsl:variable ?
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
