Is there any way to tell oXygen to ask the user interactively for a parameter value, each time a specific scenario is executed? To give a concrete example, let's say one stylesheet parameter is a password:

<xsl:param name="password" type="xs:string"/>

Of course, I don't want to store it in the XPR project file, as a clear string. That would be perfect if we were able to say in a scenario definition: "ask for the 'password' param using a dialog box each time this scenario is executed."

This is interesting, since it isn't unlike what I was thinking in response to Eliot's request for a macro to reflect the XML input URI in a scenario applied to stylesheets. To Eliot's request, my thought was that usually I've just lived with hardcoding the output file in such a case, since the input XML file generally has to be hardcoded anyway. On the other hand, I wondered whether it could be useful to have a macro that would open a dialog box allowing me to select the XML input file when running a scenario on a stylesheet -- in which case a macro that would let me parameterize the output by the input would be really useful. Then I thought this would be gilding the lily -- except then Florent suggests a more dynamic way of assigning runtime parameter values, which wouldn't be so dissimilar from such a mechanism (and I agree would be useful). Dare one suppose that one might also want to parameterize the name of the output according to the value of a runtime parameter? :-> Cheers, Wendell ====================================================================== Wendell Piez mailto:wapiez@mulberrytech.com Mulberry Technologies, Inc. http://www.mulberrytech.com 17 West Jefferson Street Direct Phone: 301/315-9635 Suite 207 Phone: 301/315-9631 Rockville, MD 20850 Fax: 301/315-8285 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Mulberry Technologies: A Consultancy Specializing in SGML and XML ======================================================================
