xalan extensions, cont'd.

[Brad Cox]

More on the previously posted question. After considerable 
tinkering, the code is actually running, invoking the 
addPage(key, value) method on the task instance I passed as a 
parameter as intended.

The problem is that the value argument, as computed as 
"string(.)", isn't what I want. I want the value to be the 
result of <xsl:apply-templates/>, e.g. not the current node from 
the input, but the node after being transformed by the other 
templates in this file. I don't see how to do this. Can someone 
please help?

Here's the full xsl file I'm using:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
        xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
        xmlns:lxslt="http://xml.apache.org/xslt";
        xmlns:java="http://xml.apache.org/xslt/java";
        xmlns:task="edu.virtualschool.model.Task"
        extension-element-prefixes="task"
        exclude-result-prefixes="java"
>
<xsl:output method="html"/>
<xsl:param name="task"></xsl:param>
<xsl:template match="/task">
#parse("vel/macros.vel")
#set($totalPages = <xsl:value-of select="count(page)"/>)
#set($pageTitles = [<xsl:for-each select="page">"<xsl:value-of 
select="@ident"/>",</xsl:for-each>"Submit page"])
<xsl:apply-templates select="page"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="page">
<xsl:value-of select="task:addPage($task, string(@ident), string(.))" />
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template 
match="EmailQuestion|EssayQuestion|NameQuestion|UrlQuestion">
#<xsl:value-of select="name()"/>("<xsl:value-of 
select="@ident"/>" "<xsl:value-of select="normalize-
space(text())"/>")
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="MenuQuestion|RadioQuestion|CheckboxQuestion">
#<xsl:value-of select="name()"/>("<xsl:value-of 
select="@ident"/>" "<xsl:value-of select="normalize-
space(text())"/>" [<xsl:for-each select="option">"<xsl:value-of 
select="."/>"<xsl:if test="not(position() = 
last())">,</xsl:if></xsl:for-each>])
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
For completeness, the code that launches the transform (from Task.java)
TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer transformer = tFactory.newTransformer(new 
StreamSource(xslFile.toString()));
transformer.setParameter( "task", this );
StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
transformer.transform(
	new StreamSource(xmlFile.toString()),
	new StreamResult(sw)
);
System.err.println("out:"+sw); // printed and discarded
this.xmlModified = xmlFile.lastModified();
this.dvslModified = dvslFile.lastModified();

And the addPage method (from Task.java). I don't understand the 
first two arguments; apparently they aren't needed/required/used 
based on it working after commenting them
out.

	public void addPage(
		// org.apache.xalan.extensions.XSLProcessorContext context,
		// org.apache.xalan.templates.ElemExtensionCall element,
		String ident,
		String body
	)
	{
		String pageText =
			"#parse(\"vel/macros.vel\")\n"+
			"#taskOpening(\""+ident+"\")\n"+
			body+"\n"+
			"#taskClosing(\""+ident+"\")\n"+
			"";
		System.err.println("addPage:"+pageText);
		pages.add(new Page(this, ident, pageText, new 
IntegerField(pages.size())));
	}
