Valid names used in query strings 101
–token.[string] (Pass values between XSLT stylesheets) query parameter
Passes any user-defined information between XSLT stylesheets without using sessions or cookies. This
query parameter can only be used with Custom Web Publishing with XSLT requests.
string in –token.[string] is: Any alphanumeric string of any length, except blank spaces, including the
numbers 0-9, lowercase letters a-z, or uppercase letters A-Z
User-defined parameter value is: Any character string that is URL encoded.
Optional with: All XSLT requests
Example:
http://192.168.123.101/fmi/xsl/template/my_stylesheet.xsl?–db=employees&–lay=departments
&–grammar=fmresultset&–token.D100=Active&–findall
See “Using tokens to pass information between stylesheets” on page 58.
