Subject: Re: [xsl] Parsing Input Data for well-formedness From: Wendell Piez <wapiez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 09 Oct 2001 14:40:50 -0400 |
Cheers, Wendell
When building an XML file from external data, we need to validate that each input string is well-formed. The specific situation is a Loan Type field which returns "A&D". Before we populate our XML file, we need to convert this to "A&D". Otherwise the XSLT will complain and not render the final page.
Before we build a utility class for checking/correcting these (all?!?) input strings, i have to ask the obvious -- has anyone already created something like this? Certainly there are many other characters we will need to consider, and we'll have to watch out for double-escaping things (A&amp;D).
Must i reinvent this wheel?
