Subject: Re: [xsl] white space removal From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2001 11:15:03 +0100 |
white space nodes in the stylesheet are not copied to the output by default (unless they are in xsl:text), so just make sure all the characters you want to output are not in the same text nodes as the white space used for indenting the stylesheet. <xsl:template match="x"> hello <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:template> the first text node is newline, 2 spaces, hello, newline, 2 spaces. and will be copied as such to the output, but <xsl:template match="x"> <xsl:text>hello</xsl:text> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:template> Now the newlines are in text nodes that just consist of white space, so are stripped. There are variations such as <xsl:template match="x"> <xsl:text/>hello<xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:template> David _____________________________________________________________________ This message has been checked for all known viruses by Star Internet delivered through the MessageLabs Virus Scanning Service.
