I have been busting a nut last few days trying to solve a code issue of getting java script to display XML in a table from an SVG. I did ask here but got no reply and I understand why as it was a lot easier than I thought it would be.

I have solved that but am stuck once again, although I have one state displaying the correct details, I need to do it for the rest of the states, I want to know if I will need and XSLT for each one or if I can do it all on the same xslt?

<div id="vaulttable" />

So that is the main html page, at the moment it has CA and NV, the XSLT I currently have does a XSL value of select on the state in the XML file below

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:template match="/">
  <html>
  <body>
  <h2>Vault found in state</h2>
  <table border="1">
    <tr bgcolor="#9acd32">
      <th style="text-align:left">vaultname</th>
    </tr>
    <xsl:for-each select="vaults/vault[state='California']">
    <tr>
      <td><xsl:value-of select="vaultname" /></td>
    </tr>
    </xsl:for-each>
  </table>
  </body>
  </html>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

So the XML I have here is a cut down version of just a single vault from each of the two states, so if you click on California it displays the LA vault, now I would like it so I only need the single XSL file for each state. At the moment I can do it if I copy the function from the map.html page and rename the function for each state and have separate XSL files but there must be a cleaner way of doing it

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<vaults xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="vaults.xsd">
  <vault>
    <vaultname>Los Angeles Vault </vaultname>
    <state>California</state>
    <location>Los Angeles (Cathedral)</location>
    <description>The Vault-Tec demonstration vault. It was not part of the experiment, and was the Master's vault under the Cathedral. </description>
    <fate> </fate>
    <appearance>Fallout</appearance>
  </vault>
  <vault>
    <vaultname>Vault 3</vaultname>
    <state>Nevada</state>
    <location>West of Las Vegas</location>
    <description>A control vault designed to open after 20 years, but kept closed longer due to the wishes of the vault inhabitants.</description>
    <fate> unplanned water leak forced the occupants to open in hopes of trading with the outside. Unfortunately, all of the vault's residents were massacred by a group of raiders known as the Fiends shortly after they opened the vault door.</fate>
    <appearance>Fallout New Vegas</appearance>
  </vault>
</vaults>

So a person clicks on CA at the moment a table is show that displays the vault name in a div at the bottom of the page, I would like so if they select NV it will display the vault for NV

You can pass parameters to your xslt-stylesheet like this:

xsltProcessor.setParameter(null,"state","California");

and then in your XSLT you can do

<xsl:for-each select="vaults/vault[state=$state]">

for more details, and crossbrowser compat, see the answer to this question: How to pass parameter to XSLT from Javascript function
