Hi,

 I'm facing a problem is passing xslt value to a javascript. I'm capturing the value of PromotionCode in a variable and then passing it to the javascript funtion.But the value is not getting passed though its getting printed properly as a text.


<xsl:for-each select="ns0:ShowPromotion/ns0:DataArea/ns0:Promotion">
     <tr bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
    <td class="tablecontent" align="center">
       <xsl:variable name="PromoCode">
         <xsl:value-of select="ns0:PromotionHeader/ns0:PromotionCode"/>
       </xsl:variable>
       <a href="javascript:call_action_soa('goPreviewSOASear ch.do','{PromoCode}','{PromoType}' )">
        <xsl:value-of select="ns0:PromotionHeader/ns0:PromotionCode"/>
       </a>
    </td>
    </tr>
</xsl:for-each>

I'll appreciate if anyone can help me out on this,also,is there any other way to do this ?

Thanks

Got the solution,used ,

<a href="javascript:call_action_soa('goPreviewSOASear ch.do',{$PromoCode},{$PromoType})">

$ did the trick

I think you want $PromoCode rather than just PromoCode.

Also, don't do

<xsl:variable name="x">
  <xsl:value-of select="y"/>
</xsl:variable>

which creates a result tree fragment, when you only want a string. Instead do

<xsl:variable name="x" select="y"/>

I saw one stylesheet recently that ran 5 times faster after making this change - and why write 3 lines of code where 1 will do?
