Subject: [xsl] output method html doesnt work with namespace in source tree From: "Andrew Welch" <awelch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 17 Dec 2002 16:14:05 -0000 |
An interesting issue was raised by Christian Hujer over on xalan-j-users that might interest the list. Consider the source: <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="de"> <head> <title>Test</title> </head> <body> <p> Line <br /> Next Line </p> </body> </html> With this stylesheet: <xsl:transform version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="html"/> <xsl:template match="@*|*"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> </xsl:transform> An identity transform that specifies an output method of html, applied to a source where all elements are in a non-null namespace. The usual suspect is the way <br /> is output: Xalan: <br/> Saxon: <br> MSXML4: <br></br> Now to quote the spec: (http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#section-HTML-Output-Method) The html output method should not output an element differently from the xml output method unless the expanded-name of the element has a null namespace URI; an element whose expanded-name has a non-null namespace URI should be output as XML. If the expanded-name of the element has a null namespace URI, but the local part of the expanded-name is not recognized as the name of an HTML element, the element should output in the same way as a non-empty, inline element such as span. >From that I would say Xalan conforms, Saxon doesnt and MSXML is confused... ;-) cheers andrew --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
