I have seen the postings about passing XML into an XSL transformation. The
problem is that I cannot use any XPath navigation in the XSL that won't
generate an error. If I use <xsl:copy-of select="$var"/> then the XML is
output into the html page but this <xsl:copy-of select="$var/NS:Child"/>,
and all other XPath navigation, fails with the error that 'The expression
passed to this method should result in a NodeSet'. The real goal is to use
xsl:for-each to navigate over all $var's children but can't get it to work.
I have seen the samples and they all show I should be able to do this. The
only difference is that the samples never use namespaces and I have a
namspace on my xml.

You must be passing XPathNavigator to XSLT?
You have to pass XPathNodeIterat or to be able to work with it as with
nodeset in XSLT.
XPathNavigator is RTF in XSLT, XPathNodeIterat or - nodeset.

Oleg,
Thanks, I did try this but since my XML has a namespace I could not figure
out how to set the XsltContext for the query. Below is the code I am using.
//props is XmlNode
XPathNavigator nav = props.CreateNav igator();
XsltArgumentLis t args = new XsltArgumentLis t();
args.AddParam(" properties", "", nav.Select("/FE:Properties") );
The .Select() method throws an exception 'Namespace Manager or XsltContext
needed. This query has a prefix,
variable, or user-defined function'. The XmlNode's XmlDocument has the
correct context set, so props.SelectSin gleNode("/FE:Properties") does work.
I have tried to use the second param in AddParam but I do not think this
does what I need.

Oleg thanks for the quick response,
I got it working but not really the way I wanted. If you could answer the
namespace question that would be great. This is what I changed
XPathNavigator nav = props.CreateNav igator();
XsltArgumentLis t args = new XsltArgumentLis t();
args.AddParam(" properties", "", nav.Select("./*")); //changed this to no
namespace XPath
Then used <xsl:for-each select="$proper ties"> to output rows
Thanks,

You have to provide XmlNamespaceMan ager to Select method to define FE
prefix:
XPathExpression expr = nav.Compile("/FE:Properties") ;
XmlNamespaceMan ager mngr = new XmlNamespaceMan ager(nav.NameTa ble);
mngr.AddNamespa ce("FE","FE namespace URI goes here");
expr.SetContext (mngr);
args.AddParam(" properties", "", nav.Select(expr ));

Oleg,
Thanks, got it working. I had tried this but I was using the prop's
XmlDocument NameTable not the nav's NameTable this must have caused a
problem. I actually have a wrapper class around XmlDocument that manages my
namespaces so I don't have to create a namespace manager for each dom. I was
using my GetNsMgr() accessor to return the XmlDocuments namespace manage and
pass that to SetContext but that didn't work. When you recreate a namespace
manager it works.
Thanks,
Tim

Hello!
I would like to request a new method on the XsltArgumentList class, allowing
developers to check the presense of a key/value pair. If you try to add a
key/value pair that has already been defined in the list, an exception is
thrown.
Rather than using the "GetParam" method, it would be usefull to have a
method called ".Exists" available on the XsltArgumentList. I think this
allows for cleaner and more readable code. Or, perhaps...

The following transformation puzzles me when trying to transform XML to XML.
I get an exception "THE EXPRESSION PASSED TO THIS METHOD SHOULD RESULT IN A
NODESET" at the last line "xmlDoc.Load(xr)" when I run the code.
I previously tried it all without a parameter and hard-coded the value into
the 'apply-templates' statement and the tranform produced
the result that I expected but when I inset the parameter I get the
exception.

I have a page in .net (DEFAULT.ASPX), i load a XmlDocument, and a

The <asp:xml> is good with xml and xsl, but the param is not fill with the

Do you have a solution ??? Thanx

Hello, I am trying to pass a parameter through C# using a
XsltArgumentList class to a xsl:param element, but I dont know if it is
possible to do. And also I am trying to get the count of this node
too, that has as name the value of the parameter.
The "DateElementName" value is the name of a selected node that I want
to know the count on the xml file.
Any ideas? Thank you.
