Definition and Usage
The <xsl:with-param> element defines the value of a parameter to be passed to a template.
Note:The value of the name attribute of the <xsl:with-param> element must match the name in the <xsl:param> element; otherwise, the <xsl:with-param> element will be ignored.
Note:The <xsl:with-param> element is allowed in both <xsl:apply-templates> and <xsl:call-template>.
Tip:You can assign a value to the parameter through the content of the <xsl:with-param> element or through the select attribute!
