Need help with ParameterSelector

I'm using Cocoon-2.1-dev, RedHat-8, Sun j2sdk1.4.1_02.

I want to implement the following selector using 
test="starts-with({1},'test')

   <map:selectors default="parameter">
     <map:selector name="parameter" 
src="org.apache.cocoon.selection.ParameterSelector"
       logger="sitemap.selector.parameter"/>
   </map:selectors>


       <map:select type="parameter">
         <map:parameter name="parameter-selector-test" value="{1}"/>

         <map:when test="starts-with({1},'test')">
           <map:generate type="serverpages" src="{1}.xsp"/>
           <map:transform src="stylesheets/test2html.xsl"/>
           <map:serialize type="xml"/>
         </map:when>
       </map:select>


If I use test="test" it works, but test="starts-with({1},'test') does not work.
Will ParameterSelector use "starts-with" in the test?
If so, is the syntax correct?

AW: Need help with ParameterSelector

Posted by Marco Rolappe <m_...@web.de>.
hi bobby,

AFAIK the ParameterSelector doesn't support any xpath constructs (e.g. the
starts-with function). it deals with plain strings.

you could implement the desired functionality with help of jxpath in a
selector of your own (extending the ParameterSelector).
