Hi,


Thanks for the mail.

I am bit new to XSL processing.  If we can't pass the
arrays into XSL, then i hope that we can pass array
string as a variable.

Say i have an XML file

<colors>
<color>color[1]<color>
<color>color[2]<color>
<color>color[3]<color>
</colors>

And my XSL may looks like

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:variable name="arrayString">
   color[1],color[2]
</xsl:variable>

<xsl:template match="colors">

<xsl:if test="contains(color,$arrayString)">
 <xsl:text> do something</xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

The above XSL will fail to process to match with
multiple values in the array string.

So in this case how we can fix the searching problem ?


Thanks and regards,
Deepak
