OK, I take your point ;) I'll have another look, to see if it offers yet another solution.

But my first question still stands .... did we work out a method whereby dynamic sitemap variables can be passed to input modules?

Hi All


Is it possible to use a value from a matcher in an input module?
(I asked about this a while ago, there was some interest, but I don't
remember what was resolved).


I need to take a URL coming into a Sitemap, pass it to an input module
and use the returned value in the @src of a generator. ie. I am using
an XML file to 'translate' URLs.

With a pipeline like this:

<map:match pattern="*">
        <map:generate src="{linkmap:{1}}"> ???????
        etc.
</map:match>

How do you pass the "{1}" into the input module that will look up the
URL (using XPath) in the LinkMap?

regards Jeremy
