xsl:param reading a passed parameter in a browser

Hi all,

this got to be easy but I can't figure it out.

This is what I am trying to do:

I would like to open a xml-file in a browser and pass a parameter to
it like this:

http://127.0.0.1//searchdata.xml?searchfor=thisword

My xsl looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/
Transform">

<xsl:template match="/">
	<xsl:param name="searchfor" select="''"/>
	<HTML>
	<HEAD>
	<TITLE></TITLE>
	</HEAD>
	<BODY>
	search for this string: <xsl:value-of select="$searchfor"/><br/>
	</BODY>
	</HTML>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

So it should just show the parameter that has been passed. - Well, it
doesn't. No error... just blank after the "search for this string:"

What I have found until now:

1) <xsl:param has to be right the next element to <xsl:template
2) It should work when it is done with a xsl-t processor.
3) a lot of people are having similar problems but found a solution in
using different xsl-t engines or whatever ... I have to use the
browsers engine (Internet Explorer 6)

I am going slightly mad ... I must be easy ... I just want to read the
parameter.

I really hope that someone here has a nice idea about this ...
