Subject: RE: [xsl] XSLT transformation using counters From: Bubba O'Reily <killswi7ch1@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 27 Apr 2011 08:32:08 -0400 |
Now I'm confused. Maybe XML output is not the way to go? SHould it be just "text"? Bascially I have a well-formed XML file as input. I need to translate all the elements to tags using the syntax below (ex. <ParaStyle:SOME_NAME>) Any <a href="??">...<a/>, <i>...</i> would also require replacing. So I will need to replace </ elements to. What is the best method to perform this task? > Date: Wed, 27 Apr 2011 13:17:37 +0100 > From: davidc@xxxxxxxxx > To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > CC: killswi7ch1@xxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: [xsl] XSLT transformation using counters > > On 27/04/2011 12:40, Bubba O'Reily wrote: > > > > > > I want to export XML. > > then it would really help people understand your requirements if the > required output that you showed was well formed xml, so far (including > this last mail) that has never been the case.
