Subject: Is Extra space in my XML causing a problem? From: Matthew Cordes <mcorde61@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 9 Jun 2000 19:05:12 -0400 |
Brian, I think You want normalize-space() section 4.2 of the xpath spec. Is it similiar to java String trim() method, except that the number of spaces on each side of non whitespace data is reduced to 1 space, e.g.: normalize-space( ' aaaa ') would return: ' aaaa ' -matt > ------------------------------ > > Date: Fri, 09 Jun 2000 10:40:59 -0400 > From: "Brian Burridge" <brian_burridge@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Subject: Is Extra space in my XML causing a problem? > > I am trying to suppress a column in XSL (if the values is 'null'), but > the text I'm comparing to isn't ever matching.
