Something like this?
<xsl:template
match="para[@pm='+++']">
<xsl:param
name="pm" select="self::*[@pm][1]/@pm"/>
<fo:inline>
<xsl:value-of
select="$pm"/></xsl:apply-templates>
</fo:inline>
</xsl:template>
If <para> has no pm attribute this template would be
ignored.
<xsl:template match="strict_para[@pm] != 'xxx'
">
</xsl:template>
The above would
catch any use of <strict_para> that didn't have an attribute pm which
equals 'xxx'.
A good place to
read up on XSLT: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XSLT
Hope that
helps,

Subject:
[docbook-apps] Adding attributes/parameters to the "<para>"
template?
Hi,
I am having a hard time trying add a "para
template" in my "customization" layer.
I would want to add an parameter to the para
template. This parameter would
contain a string that would be prepended to the
paragraph.
So if I had in my xml file this
...
<para pm="+++ ">Hi there
</para>
... output would be in html something like
...
<p>+++ Hi
there</p>
Also how would I make the template use a default value
if the attribute/parameter
was left out? Also how could I make another
template say ... strict_para ... that
would cause an error if the parameter was left
out?
I guess I should get a book on xsl ... right? or
is xstl?
Thanks
Plankton
