Subject: [xsl] big recursive function From: jon wa <jonni@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 28 Nov 2001 12:25:52 +0100 (MET) |
i have an xhtml file as input which i convert to plain text output. for <pre> tags i have to output as is but indent every line by 4 spaces. no problem... if the string $table is not empty then print 4 spaces and the string up to the first LF then call itself again with the rest of the string. <xsl:template name="format"> <xsl:param name="table"/> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="string-length($table) > 0"> <xsl:value-of select="' '"/><xsl:value-of select="concat(substring-before($table, ' '), ' ')"/> <xsl:call-template name="format"> <xsl:with-param name="table"> <xsl:value-of select="substring-after($table, ' ')"/> </xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> my problem then comes when i have a big pre section to process. the function recurses so many times that my parser (gnome libxslt) throws an error. it seems as tho i can increase the depth that it will recurse but i haven't found a way to do it with the perl interface i'm using. so my question is, is my function the right way of going about things? i just assumed that heavy recursion was ok and i have done some other heavy functions in the past. or is there another way to make the function more efficient? thanks! -- Sent through GMX FreeMail - http://www.gmx.net XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
