Description Frans Englich 2004-12-04 01:32:34 UTC 
Please describe the problem:

This stylesheet:

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

    <xsl:template match="/">
        <xsl:with-param name="ads">foo</xsl:with-param>
        <foo/>
    </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Gives a result of:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<foo/>

While it should fail to compile, AFAICT; with-param is not allowed in template
element.

It is not totally unnoticed, xsltproc prints:
xsltApplyOneTemplate: problem with xsl:with-param

But it should bail out, and say something like "Failed to compile: invalid
element foo in file bar, at line x".


Cheers,

         Frans

Fixed in CVS, I added most of the rules from appendix B of the spec
with respect to the content model of stylesheets elements:

paphio:~/XSLT/libxslt -> xsltproc tst.xsl tst.xsl
compilation error: file tst.xsl line 6 element with-param
element with-param is not allowed within that context
paphio:~/XSLT/libxslt ->

  this was a long term TODO,

Wow, very nice. Productivity & usability got a giant boost. From my experience,   
what people have noticed(on lists like xml-dev, docbook, docbook-apps), is that   
libxslt have accepted those errornous stylesheets, so I think this is a major   
step, and will help people a lot. So make sure it's central in the upcoming 
Changelog :) 
 
 
Cheers,
