Subject: RE: [xsl] "Passing through" special characters From: "Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2005 18:22:30 -0000 |
First point: the character references such as are converted to regular characters by the XML parser. The XSLT processor never gets to see the character references, so it can't pass them through. Second point: character references such as are a feature of XML and HTML, so you can produce them when using the xml and html output methods, but not when using the text output method. Characters are never escaped with the text output method, so disabling escaping achieves nothing. I think you need to use something like (in XPath 2.0) replace(' ', '&#10;') Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/ > -----Original Message----- > From: David.McKay@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:David.McKay@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] > Sent: 27 January 2005 15:56 > To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [xsl] "Passing through" special characters > > --- XSL Processor Details > > Vendor: SAXON 6.5.3 from Michael Kay > Vendor URL: http://saxon.sf.net/ > > --- > > I have some xml, the important part of which looks like this: > > <RS422Tx name="RS422Tx1" baud_rate="19200" > data_word="ABC DEF "/> > > I am trying to parse to a text output file.
