Subject: Re: [xsl] Initial whitespace in PI from XSLT, main body From: "Bauman, Syd s.bauman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 8 May 2022 07:58:54 -0000 |
Thanks for the thoughts, Dimitre. Could also use some other character (like b (U+2420) or b$ (U+2424)) and convert it later. But in fact I have no need to force a whitespace character on output. If I donbt mention it, the client may not even notice that all of her PIs have lost a leading space after her files are bfixedb with my XSLT. But the spaces are summarily unimportant. (Although it does make me wonder how they got there in the first place. :-) ________________________________ Syd, I see two ways (if you really need to) to maintain a PI whose string value starts with a whitespace character: 1. Enclose this value in some strippable non-whitespace characters (say apostrophes or quotes), or, 2. If the value is guaranteed not to end with a space character, just use the reversed string value, and when you get that in your code, reverse it back. Hope this helps,
