A question on how users are using <xsl:message > 2006-12-12 - By Brian Minchau
Hi Dave,
what element would this attribute be on? The xsl:message element?
I know that Xalan has some extension attributes for xsl:output ... but now
that I think about it ... where in XSLT 1.0 recommendation does it say that
this is OK?
I don't know if users want to change individual xsl:message elements in
their stylesheet, or if they want to specify some global change say via the
Transformer.setParameter(String,Object), say
Transformer.setParameter("{http://xml.apache.org/xalan}message-location",
"no"); ?

Brain Minchau asks:
>How are you using <xsl:message>?
Okay, I'll start.
I am using it strictly in interactive usage, either for progress
tracking messages or for debugging. Most of the time, the location
information is either desirable or not a problem. It would be nice to
have an attribute (e.g., xalan:location-info="no") to control it.
I would also be interested to hear if anyone has warmed up to the
notion that xsl:message can emit something other than a string. The
spec (part 13) grants leeway for xsl:message to issue elements or
whatever, though I think strings in the body should never be
ignored.
