Subject: [xsl] Text markup for web forums, eg. [b]bold text[/b] From: "Daniel Joshua" <daniel.joshua@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 1 Jun 2004 14:25:14 +0800 |
Hi all, I am trying to use XSL to do the common mark-up found in web forums, etc (I am making my own mini-forum integrated into my application). XML (input): <text> <value>Text may contain [b]bold text[/b], [i]italics[/i] or both [b][i]bold and italics[/i][/b].</value> </text> (X)HTML (desired output): <div class="text">Text may contain <b>bold text</b>, <i>italics</i> or both <b><i>bold and italics</i></b>.</div> XSLT (incomplete): <xsl:template match="text"> <div class="text"> <xsl:value-of select="value"/> </div> </xsl:template> I am stumped on how to continue... maybe just give me some ideas and I will continue from there... Also, how should I handle incomplete or wrongly nested tags (eg. <value>[b]blah blah [b][i]blah blah[/b][/i]</value>) Most web forums normally just do not convert "bad" tags and leave them for users to edit and fix them, so I guess I should try to do the same. Regards, Daniel
