The following XSLT file is the result of creating the template rules described in the previous topics in this section.
This example uses variables and passes parameters between template rules.
XML File (weatherlog.xml)
Use weatherlog.xml, in Initial XSLT Example Using Variables. Change the href attribute to reference weatherlog.xsl.
