Can I pass a variable to an XSLT

Can I pass a variable to an XSLT, without having to dynamically create the transformer.

You see I have a java class that takes the path to an xml document, path to the xslt, and returns the resultant string:

String result = xmlTransformer.transform( "menu.xml","menu.xsl")

But there are a few cases where I would love to have all the information in a single xml document, and a single xslt, so I could have something like:

String result = xmlTransformer.transform( "menu.xml","menu.xsl?entries=5" )

or something like that. the idea is that I can get away with having to have an excessive amount of xslt files.

I think you need to look at PARAM ? This will allow you to pass in variables, via PHP to the XSL-T processor it's self.

Although I also need to look at this some more myself, so cannot post any script

OK no probs, I'm not actually using php, its all done in java. But I'll have a look into passing parameters into it.

Thanks
