Hello, friends.
Imagine the following exotic situation.
A stylesheet contains a named template, say
<xsl:template name="qq">...</xsl:template>
with "..." an arbitrary valid XSLT code.
This template is to be used in two different "regimes".
The first regime is the usual one: the template
is called via
<xsl:call-template name="qq"/>
The second regime is exotic: the template's
content is identically copied into the output
(as a result tree fragment).
For instance, let the stylesheet be as follows:
<xsl:template name="qq">
<node attr="{2+2=4}"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="/">
<results>
<usual-result>
<xsl:call-template name="qq"/>
</usual-result>
<exotic-result>
... your code ...
</exotic-result>
</results>
</xsl:template>
Then the result of transforming a document
via this stylesheet should be as follows:
<results>
<usual-result>
<node attr="true"/>
</usual-result>
<exotic-result>
<node attr="{2+2=4}"/>
</exotic-result>
</results>
The task is to find a pure XSLT solution.
An interesting puzzle, isn't it?
(Not so difficult, though.)
