xsl:with-param

Used to define an actual parameter to a template. It may be used within an xsl:call-template, xsl:apply-templates, or xsl:apply-imports element.

Content: sequence-constructor
Permitted parent elements: xsl:apply-templates ; xsl:apply-imports ; xsl:call-template ; xsl:next-match

Attributes

`name`	`eqname`	The name of the parameter.
`select?`	`expression`	The value of the parameter may be defined either by a `select` attribute, or by the contents of the `xsl:param` element, in the same way as for xsl:variable.
`as?`	`sequence-type`
`tunnel?`	`boolean`	The attribute `tunnel="yes"` creates a tunnel parameter which is accessible to called templates at any depth, whether or not they are declared in intermediate templates. However, the value is only accessible if `tunnel="yes"` is also specified on the corresponding `xsl:param` element.

Details

For an example, see xsl:template.

The parameter has no effect unless the called template includes a matching xsl:param element. But when using xsl:call-template, it is an error to specify a parameter that isn't declared in the target template, or to omit a parameter that's described in the target template with required="yes".

In XSLT 3.0, xsl:with-param can also appear as a child of xsl:evaluate, to define variables available for use within the dynamically-evaluated XPath expression, and as a child of xsl:next-iteration, to define values of iteration parameters to be used on the next iteration.
