Well, it does matter. I will give you some code: <style> span p {margin-left:0em} p {margin-left:2.5em} </style> <body> <span></span> <p>Hello</p> <span/> <p>world</p> </body> The output you will get in IE5.5 is: Hello World The <p> after the minimised <span/> does not pick up its CSS style properly. >From a few tests, I found that msxml2.6 converted <span></span> to <span/> whilst MSXML3 and Instant Saxon left it as <span></span> (and not causing a problem). Ive tried converting the above to xhtml, but that doesnt solve the problem either. Has anyone had similar problems with tag minimisation, and any possible solutions? cheers andrew === -----Original Message----- From: owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of David Carlisle Sent: Wednesday, February 06, 2002 5:02 PM To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [xsl] tag minimisation > whereas xsl proper keeps it as <p></p>. No it is entirely up to the system how it linearises empty elements: some XSLT systems use <p/> some <p></p> .Since every XML system will treet these identically it shouldn't matter which you get.
