Subject: [xsl] text(), whitespace, and nxslt From: "Roger Chi" <roger.xslt@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 19 Oct 2005 18:39:06 +0000 |
XSLT 1.0 Given this stylesheet: <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/> <xsl:template match="node()"> <output> <test1> <xsl:value-of select="boolean(.)"/> </test1> <test2> <xsl:value-of select="boolean(text())"/> </test2> <test3> <xsl:value-of select="boolean(child::text())"/> </test3> </output> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> And this source file: <ROOT> <!-- some whitespace --> </ROOT> I get values of true, true, true in nxslt However, in the built in XMLSpy parser, msxsl, and saxon I get true, false, false. If I use the parameter -xw (Strip non-significant whitespace from source and stylesheet), the result from nxslt becomes the same as the other parsers (true, false, false). My question: Does nxslt consider whitespace as something that should give a true when using boolean(text()), and is this conforming to spec; or do the other processors strip out whitespace before processing?
