    Passing a boolean parameter to a javascript function

    Hi, this is my first time with xslt and i hope somebody help me figure this one out.
    I created a macro with a parameter called (alias) "showNavigation", type: bool.

    The idea is to pass this parameter to a javascript function which expect a value of 'true' or 'false' but I'm getting a numeric value instead.
    Here is what I'm doing:

    <script type="text/javascript">  
     $(document).ready(function(){ $('#features').jshowoff(controls: <xsl:value-of select="/macro/showNavigation"/> ); });
    </script>

    Hi

    I think you can solve this by making a variable, where you get the correct value and then call it in your function. So the code would look something like this.

    <xsl:variable name="showNavigation">
    <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="/macro/showNavigation = '1'"><xsl:text>true</xsl:text></xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise><xsl:text>false</xsl:text></xsl:otherwise>
    </xsl:choose>
    </xsl:variable>

    and then in your script you just write <xsl:value-of select="$showNavigation" />

    Hope this helps

    /Jan

    Hi CodeMaster2008

    You can do the following: 

    <xsl:value-of select="string(boolean(/macro/showNavigation))" />
