Exception raised from XslCompiledTransformation

[lionfish]

Hi, AllI am new to XSLT. I got an exception when running XslCompiledTransformation to load a testing XSL style sheet in ASP.NET 4.0 environment.Following is the style sheet and the error message. What is wrong with it?Thanks.

exception:

{"The variable or parameter 'ip' is either not defined or it is out of scope."}

System.Exception {System.Xml.Xsl.XslLoadException}

[Martin Honnen]

You have code like

<xsl:value-of select="$ip"/>

referencing a variable or parameter named "ip" that is not defined in your stylesheet.I also note you are using version="2.0" on your stylesheet though you say you use XslCompiledTransform which is an XSLT 1.0 processor. I strongly suggest you use version="1.0" as otherwise XslCompiledTransform runs in forwards compatible mode. But that suggestion is a general one, it is not related to that error you get.

Thanks, you are right. That's the problem.There is another part of the file was missing which including the definition.

<xsl:variable name="ip">
