Subject: Re: [xsl] Transformer adds unwanted newlines From: Robert Koberg <rob@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 3 Oct 2008 07:38:49 -0400 |
I have a problem with a transformer which adds unwanted newlines. I am
using the Xalan that comes with JDK 1.4.2 (this is an old J2EE project
which breaks if I try to use a newer JDK) and I have a rule to copy HTML
fragments embedded in my XML:
<xsl:template match='div|span'> <xsl:copy-of select="."/> </xsl:template>
I put in the following enclosed in <div> ... </div>:
<table cellpadding='10'><tr><td>...
but this is what I get out:
<table cellpadding="10"> <tr> <td> ...
This doesn't matter, except in the following case:
<pre> public class Demo {<br /> <b>public static void</b> main...
which comes out as:
<pre> public class Demo {<br> <b>public static void</b> main...
That is, Xaalan is inserting newlines between tags which are separated only by whitespace. In the case of the <pre> block above, the spaces after <br /> are output, followed by a newline, which means that the indentation is completely wrong.
I have tried adding indent="no" to my <xsl:output> tag but this has no effect.
Anyone got any ideas what I can do about this?
TIA,
