Re: [xsl] XML output ugly

Bridger, thanks!!    I still get an extra line in between, but yes, that
information does fix the indenting.  Very cool!  Now if I could just get rid
of that extra lineb&

    <c03>
        <did>
            <unittitle>A. Van Jordan (Poetry)</unittitle>
            <unitid>fv_6680</unitid>
            <unitdate type="inclusive"
normal="2007-02-28">2/28/2007</unitdate>
            <physdesc>
                <extent>DVD</extent>
            </physdesc>
            <container>Box 19</container>
        </did>
    </c03>

For what itbs worth, and in case anyone was wondering, there are no blank
lines or carriage returns or anything in the input document.  Itbs just a
solid block of xml.  So these extra lines are clearly being generated by the
XSLT processor.  I will do some hunting on bxalanb and see if anything
else turns up.

Hi Michele,
I'm not familiar with Filemaker Pro or Xalan, but I did find a Stackoverflow
answer that looks promising[1].
Adding a namespace declaration and a parameter to <xsl:output/> seems work in
the context of question there.

...
xmlns:xalan="http://xml.apache.org/xalan";

exclude-result-prefixes="xalan">

<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"
xalan:indent-amount="4"/>
...

Hope that's helpful.
Best,
Bridger
