Thanks for your answer, yet it doesn't fit my needs : you're refering to how define variables inside a XSLT. For my part, I need to know how to define XPath variables outside a XSLT, that means :
- within the XPath expression itself (I think there's finally no way) - through the Xalan API (I found a VariableStack class, but I don't understand how to use it, or if I should use it in my purpose anyway). Has anyone done such a thing ? -----Message d'origine----- De : Richard Cao [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Envoye : vendredi 24 octobre 2003 18:01 A : Zeljko Velaja Cc : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Objet : Re: binding variables to values in XPath Hi, Have a look at "xsl:variable" and "xsl:param" in the XSLT [1] specifications for binding variables.

Yet I cannot find anything in the XPath specification to declare a new variable and assign a value to it within an XPath expression. Did I miss something in the specification or does Xalan define a language extension wich should be usefull in what I mean to do ?
