Here is a snippet from my xsl transform which fails (under the MSXML v3
engine) :
<xsl:param name="start">10</xsl:param>
<xsl:param name="end">20</xsl:param>
<xsl:param name="size">10</xsl:param>
<xsl:param name="maxrecords">200</xsl:param>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="($start - $size) >= $size">Previous</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="($start - $size) < $size">Next</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
It appears to choke on the <xsl:when test="($start - $size) < $size">
section, complaining that the "<" is invalid.
"The character '<' cannot be used in an attribute value"
This comparison looks valid to my (albeit inexperienced eye) can anyone
explain the problem?
Many thanks.
