Subject: RE: [xsl] xml nodes with spaces (at start, end, or just spaces) not showing correctly with xsl From: "Josh Canfield" <Josh.Canfield@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 16 Jun 2004 10:15:18 -0700 |
You have escaped the text inside of your Text element so that the XML parser will treat it like text, therefore there are no <inserted> or <deleted> elements, only a block of text. Why are you escaping the contents of the <Text> element? Also, your output is not what I would expect. I would expect to see the "<inserted>" make it into the output. Can you show a complete template that outputs as you have described?

The 'track changes' is implemented by using <inserted> and <deleted> tags to identify changes (these are escaped with < > etc. in the XML). I want to display the latest version of the content so I show insertions and do not show deletions. Sample XML (snippet): <Text>The<inserted> </inserted>quick<deleted> </deleted> brown fox<inserted> </inserted>jumped<inserted> </inserted>over the lazy<deleted> </deleted> dog.</Text> ....which without the escaping becomes: <Text>The<inserted> </inserted>quick<deleted> </deleted> brown fox<inserted> </inserted>jumped<inserted> </inserted>over the lazy<deleted> </deleted> dog.</Text> So I am trying to get this to show as "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog." Sample XSL 1 (snippet): <xsl:template match="deleted"/> <xsl:template match="inserted"> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="br"> <br/> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="i"> <i> <xsl:apply-templates/> </i> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="b"> <b> <xsl:apply-templates/> </b> </xsl:template> Sample XML 2 (snippet): <xsl:template match="deleted"/> <xsl:template match="inserted"> <xsl:copy-of-select='.'/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="br"> <br/> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="i"> <i> <xsl:apply-templates/> </i> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="b"> <b> <xsl:apply-templates/> </b> </xsl:template> I have tried both of these solutions and neither work. I need to be able to have formatting inside the insertions - hence the attempt to use <xsl:apply-templates/>. The output I am getting is "Thequick brown foxjumpedover the lazy dog." - as though the spaces were never inserted. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.
