Subject: [xsl] RE-POST: [xsl] extension functions - help needed From: "Jiang, Peiyun" <Peiyun.Jiang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 15 Sep 2004 09:04:33 -0400 |
I need some help to figure out how extension functions work: I'm using Xalan Java extension. All set up is OK as I can use simple functions. The question is: I'm converting a string to a NodeList [processTextNode(string(.)) returns a NodeList]. The content of the NodeList is a mix of text nodes and img tags. i.e. This is a special char that will not display: <img src="specialchar.gif" />. More text.... The function returns the right NodeList when tested in Java. Here is the XSLT: <!-- text() node, do HTML string conversion --> <xsl:template match="text()"> <xsl:copy-of select="cops:processTextNode(string(.))"/> </xsl:template> Will this create a infinite loop (the returned nodes are processed again)? I got out of memory error when I ran the conversion. The XML document is not big. How can I fix it? Or is this the right way to do it? Note: the function may return null. I wonder if that's a problem. ******************** The real question is: I have some strange characters in my docs that cannot be displayed properly using HTML. I have to use images for them. How can I do the substitution in XSLT? I thought of (1) scanning the converted HTML to do the replacement, but most of the time I don't have the special chars in my docs (2) using SAX to convert the XML docs before doing XSLT, but need to modify the DTD to include <img> that is not desirable Is it feasible to scan the doc before written to a file? If you are doing similar conversion, please help!!! ******************** Thanks. Peiyun Jiang
