Passing parameters to Xalan

Hi folks,

I have the following stylesheet:

===================== test.xsl =========================
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet     version="1.0"
                    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:param name="test"/>

<xsl:output method="html"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
     <html><head></head>
          <body>
               <h1><xsl:value-of select="$test"/></h1>
          </body>
     </html>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

========================================================

And I am translating a document with the following contents:

===================== test.xml =========================

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<XLDL/>

========================================================

With the command line:

Xalan -p test test test.xml test.xsl

The resulting output does not contain the string 'test' between <h1> and
</h1>

What am I doing wrong?

> Xalan -p test test test.xml test.xsl

Try

Xalan -p test "'test'" test.xml test.xsl

Ciao, Jürgen
