using xml param inside a function

Question

Having declared

<xsl:param name='suffix'>some_string</xsl:param>

I tried to use its value in a function call like this

<xsl:when test='fn:ends-with(@name, {$suffix})'>

which ended with the following error:

XPST0003: XPath syntax error at char 20 on line 34 in {fn:ends-with(@name, {$}: Unexpected token "{" in path expression

What's the proper way to use parameter's value in a function call in XSL?

Answer 1

Try this:

<xsl:when test='fn:ends-with(@name, $suffix)'>
