Subject: Re: [xsl] ATTRIBUTE ORDER From: Wendell Piez <wapiez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 02 Jun 2006 13:31:51 -0400 |
Both Dimitre and Dr. Kay bring out an important point to understand. The only counter argument I would make is "How many people actually use more than one XSLT processor on the same code base in production?"
While the cross-platform differences are important to understand, it would seem the fact that the code will run cross-platform is the most important piece to all of this. The fact that theres a chance the results might be different under certain conditions would allow nicely for a simple comment to be added in this section of the code that states something like:
<!-- WARNING: Different XSLT processors can produce different output results "Since collating sequences for xsl:sort aren't defined in the spec" -->
Obviosuly you could leave out the quotes -- just making sure I pulled out the fact that I was quoting from Dr. Kay's email in this response.
Of course, this kind of information can't be overlooked, as you simply have no idea who might be running your code and with what processor at any point in the future....
Cheers, Wendell
