NAME

Apache::AxKit::Plugin::AddXSLParams::BasicSession - Provides a way to pass info from the BasicSession taglib to XSLT params

SYNOPSIS

# in httpd.conf or .htaccess, but *AFTER* you load the BasicSession plugin.
AxAddPlugin Apache::AxKit::Plugin::BasicSession
AxAddPlugin Apache::AxKit::Plugin::AddXSLParams::BasicSession

DESCRIPTION

Apache::AxKit::Plugin::AddXSLParams::BasicSession (Whew! that's a mouthful) offers a way to make information about the current session available as params within XSLT stylesheets. This module, as well as parts of the documentation, were blatantly ripped off from Apache::AxKit::Plugin::AddXSLParams::Request. Thanks!

CONFIGURATION

There is no configuration for this module, seeing as all session configuration needs to occur for the Apache::AxKit::Plugin::BasicSession module.

USAGE

Like A:A:P:A:Request, you can access session key values by defining a specially named XSL parameter. A:A:P:A:BasicSession uses the prefix "session.keys" to represent key values. For instance, if you have a session key named "search-max", the following would work:

<xsl:param name="session.keys.search-max"/>
...
<xsl:value-of select="$session.keys.search-max"/>

Any key that begins with an underscore ("_") will not be passed as an XSL parameter, since these are considered "hidden" keys managed by the BasicSession package.

DEPENDENCIES

• AxKit::XSP::BasicSession

• AxKit (1.6 or greater)
