    Parameters in Macro

    Hi,

    I would like to make a parameter for a macro variable, what should be the best way.

     

    We've tried ;

    Currently we use the macro :

    <umbraco:Macro numberOfItems="5" jaartal="2010" Alias="UitrukItems" runat="server"></umbraco:Macro>

    We would like to have something like :

    <umbraco:Macro numberOfItems="5" jaartal="<%= DateTime.Now.Year %>" Alias="UitrukItems" runat="server"></umbraco:Macro>

    But that doesn't work.

     

    Anyone goed ideas?

     

    Thanks Walter.

    Walter,

    Don't pass it to your xslt or user control from your macro, but fetch the current date IN your user control (.net code as in your snippet) or xslt (some date extension functions available).

     

    Cheers,

    /Dirk

    I've got a problem with the macro and parameters but thought I'd continue on this thread.

    In my template (RunwayTextpage.master) I have this Macro

    <umbraco:Macro Alias="Translate" runat="server" datasource="100" />

    In my Translate Macro I have this:

      <xsl:param name="currentPage"/>
      <xsl:variable name="datasource" select="/macro/datasource" />

    and then in the template further down I have...

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

    however everything else in the template works - what am I doing wrong?

    Cheers,

    Chris
