sitemap path as parameter

[Stefan Kostopoulos]

Hi everybody!

Is there are placeholder for the absolute path of the sitemap (similar 
like {1} is a placeholder for the
first wildcard)?

If not I think that would be a really usefull feature. Shouldn't be to 
hard to implement, too...

What I want to do is to pass a path to a file as a XSLT parameter, but 
I want to avoid
hardcoding the absolute path, because then this would have to changed 
when the
app gets deployed to another server.

What I have in mind is something like:

<map:transform src="joinWithIndex.xsl>
   <map:parameter name="collectionDir" 
value="{sitemap.path}/data/collection20}"/>
</map:transform>

data/collection20 would be a relative path from the dir where the 
sitemap is located and
{sitemap.path} should be replaced by the absolute path before passing 
the param to the
stylesheet.
