Can you add write XML into an XSL sheet that it can use?

[gwoodhouse]

Hello again,

Sorry for yet another question so early but this XSLT stuff is pretty
hard to get a grips on.

Ok, the question is: if im transforming some XML using an XSL
stylesheet, will i be able to reference XML written into the XSL which
is calling it (for constant values) ie.

<!--Xslsheet.xsl -->
<bob key="jim">hello</bob>

<xml:value-of select="bob"or <xml:value-of select="/bob"or
<xml:value-of select="/bob[@key='jim']">
<!--Xslsheet.xsl -->

Will "hello" be printed in the output?

I know its a small question but its very hard to find if this is true
(when im trying it now, getting no errors but its not printing out
"hello").

Thanks for your help on this (and on my last question!)

Graeme

Thanks Pavel,

That just made it click. I understand most of the code people posted
yesterday now! :)

Thanks again,

Current code:

<xsl:template match="decode">

Unfortunatly my parser doesnt like calling "decode" from within the
"decode" template?

ERROR: 'file:///C:/Development/ZWebService/xsl/bp.xsl: line 129:
Template 'decode' not defined in this stylesheet.'

You need
<xsl:template name="decode">
above if you later want to use xsl:call-template name="decode".
match="decode" is only useful if you have elements named "decode" and
want to apply templates to them.
