Subject: RE: AW: [xsl] Detecting carriage return and newline feed in XML Data From: "Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 1 Nov 2004 10:19:19 -0000 |
XML input is processed by the XML parser before it gets anywhere near the XSLT processor. The only way to prevent XML's normalization of whitespace characters (whether in element or attribute content) is to write the characters as character references, e.g. 
 You can of course do that by preprocessing the file in some non-XML-aware tool before submitting it to the XML parser. Are you really sure you need to do this? Somehow, you're not using XML the way it was intended to be used and that's always bad news. I've forgotten what your original problem was, if you ever explained it.
