import order for docbook parameters: who wins?
When you configure a docbook transformation, you can use the Parameters dialog to set the values for a parameter. Or you can set it in a customization layer in C:\Program Files\Oxygen XML Author 16\frameworks\docbook\xsl\fo\docbook_custom.xsl My question is: which takes precedence? Can I assume that the values in docbook_custom.xsl will always override a value in the parameter dialogue box? Suppose the default value for some parameter value is "no" but I use the parameter dialog to change it to "yes", At the same time in docbook_custom.xsl I hard code it to "no".

If in the XSLT they are coded as xsl:param, then any default will be overridden by parameters specified at runtime. If in the XSLT they are code as xsl:variable then they cannot be overridden at runtime.

Hi Robert, The external parameters specified in Oxygen's parameters dialog are the most important and overwrite anything else. If a parameter is not specified in Oxygen's parameters dialog then the XSLT processor will take it from the stylesheet which has more precedence (meaning from "docbook_custom.xsl").
