Elements and attributes

Attributes

Attribute Description
Name
Optional Text. Specifies a name for the parameter. The XSL stylesheet defines a parameter of the same name <xsl:param name="ParameterName"/> and the resource becomes available anywhere in the stylesheet through an XPath expression <xsl:value-of select="$ParameterName" />.
Location
Optional Text. Specifies the location of the resource. SharePoint Foundation uses a Resource function to define the value of Location in the format Location = "Resource(ResourceFile, ResourceName)", where ResourceFile specifies the base name of a resource file minus the file extension, and ResourceName specifies the name of the resource string.

In addition to specifying a localized resource in a .resx file, the Location attribute can be used to specify the values indicated in the following table.
