Synopsis

<xsl:with-param
   name=”name"
   [select=”expression“]>
   ...
</xsl:with-param>

The xsl:with-param element passes a named parameter to a template that expects it. It can be a child either of xsl:apply-templates or xsl:call-template. The parameter is received in the xsl:template by an xsl:param element with the same name. If a template expects to receive a particular parameter and doesn’t get it, then it can take the default from the value of the xsl:param element instead.
