Problem with parameters in xsl

Question

Hi there,
I have some trouble to use parameters or varaibles between models.
Here is my xml file format :
<ROOT>
<PARAM>
<NAME>NUMBER_STATION</NAME>
<TYPE>INT</TYPE>
<VAL>20</VAL>
</PARAM>
<PARAM>
<NAME>NAME_STATION</NAME>
<TYPE>TEXT</TYPE>
<VAL>LAX</VAL>
</PARAM>
</ROOT>
What I would like to do in the xsl code is to deal with PARAM differently if TYPE is INT or TEXT.
Here is my xsl code :
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:java="java"
xmlns:display="base.Display"
version="1.0">
<xsl:param name="name_p">0</xsl:param>
<xsl:param name="type_p">INT</xsl:param>
<xsl:output method="html" />
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates select="ROOT/PARAM[NAME=$name_p]/TYPE" />
<xsl:apply-templates select="ROOT/PARAM[NAME=$name_p]/VAL" />
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="TYPE">
<xsl:variable name="type_p" select="text()"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="VAL">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$type_p = 'POURCENT'">
<td>
</td>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<td>
</td>
</xsl:othewise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
But of course this is not working...I also tried to use <xsl:call-template> with a parameter but without sucess. Does anybody have some idear about that ?
Thanks in advance !

"Not working" is not much information to go on. So I will just throw out some ideas. First make sure you are actually passing the parameters to your transform. Second, use XPath expressions that actually select something from your XML. The ones you are using are looking for a TYPE element that's the child of a PARAM element (that has a NAME child with a particular value), and there are no such elements in your example.
