My code is now running. The problem was that I called 2 different
JavaScript functions and the XSLT-Processor was not defined global so of
course using setParameter in 1 of the functions did not work!!!!! My fault.

But another question on the type of parameter. I can not set a type by
declaring it in XSLT or using setParameter, can I ?

So what you suggest is make it a string by calling string($gSelectedNode)
is that right? I'll do that just in case.

thx a lot
