Examples

Note that string parameters must be surrounded by a single quote ('), else they will be interpreted as a number.

For gexslt, all parameters are string values, so the single quotes are not needed, unless they contain embedded blanks, which might confuse the shell.

Gexslt can also take any XPath expression as a parameter value, but this is not possible via geant.

  <xslt
    input="${GOBO}/doc/structure/index.xml"
    stylesheet="${GOBO}/doc/misc/gobo2db.xsl"
    output="${GOBO}/doc/structure/index2.xml"
  >

  <xslt
    input="${GOBO}/doc/structure/index.xml"
    stylesheet="${GOBO}/doc/misc/gobo2html.xsl"
    output="${GOBO}/doc/structure/index2.html"
  >
    <parameter name="previous" value="&quot;'../license.html'&quot;"/>
    <parameter name="next" value="&quot;'../time/index.html'&quot;"/>
    <parameter name="toc" value="&quot;'../index.html'&quot;"/>
  </xslt>
