Re: [xsl] spacing issue

[Spencer Tickner <spencertickner@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi david,

Thanks, that worked great. Sorry about the xml example. I think in my
haste I tried to oversimplify it,, plus the fact that's it's friday
and I'm starting to feel my brain ooze out my ear. The real code is
more lik.

:
:
:
<section>
<sectionnumber>2</sectionnumber>
<sectiontext>The Section text</sectiontext>
</section>

and the templates more like

:
:
<xsl:template match="root">
:
:
<xsl:apply-templates mode="something"/>
:
:
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="section" mode="something">
<!-- This is where I perform all my template calls for those involved
in the section -->
</xsl:template>


Anyway, it works now either way so thanks for your time and patience.

Spencer
