Re: [xsl] Ignore closing tag

[Abel Braaksma <abel.online@xxxxxxxxx>]

Note, you say "the SGML file not required for some closing tags". I 
assume you mean the closing tag is not always required (just as it isn't 
always required within classic HTML).

If it isn't required, but it isn't hurting either, and when it is used 
for machine-reading (as opposed to human-reading), then why bother 
trying to write "<elem>data" instead of "<elem>data</elem>"?

But if you must, i.e. for compatibility sake, you can post-process your 
almost-correct SGML with a list of closing tags and strip those. While 
it would be possible to do so with XSLT 2.0, it's easier and more 
straightforward to use a simple text reader/writer application that can 
skip these closing tags for you (just feed it a list of the tags).
