Subject: RE: [xsl] XSL Formatting Problem From: "Jack Cane" <jwcane@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 26 Feb 2002 07:58:49 -0500 |
Bless you, Jeni, it worked! Now, two more questions: Would like to center some text. Neither of the following works: <html:p align="center"> <xsl:value-of select="DissTitle"/> </html:p> <html:p><html:center> <xsl:value-of select="DissTitle"/> </html:center></html:p> The lines, <html:title> <xsl:value-of select="DissTitle"/> </html:title> were intended to act as the conventional title tag, which should place the content in the browser's title bar. Instead, the content is rendered on the browser content window, and the title bar reflects the path and file name on the local machine. -----Original Message----- From: Jeni Tennison [mailto:jeni@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, February 26, 2002 5:52 AM To: Jack Cane Cc: XSL-List@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [xsl] XSL Formatting Problem Hi Jack, > ************************ > The xml file follows > ************************ > > <?xml version = "1.0"?> > <?xml:stylesheet type = "text/xsl" href = "dissertation.xsl"?> That should be: <?xml-stylesheet type = "text/xsl" href = "dissertation.xsl"?> ^ hyphen, not colon > ************************ > The xsl file follows > ************************ > > <?xml version = "1.0"?> > <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/Transform/1.0" > xmlns:html="http://www/w3.org/TR/REC-hrml40" > result-ns="html"> That should be: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" version="1.0"> Namespaces are one thing that you *cannot* just guess at. Without the correct namespace for XSLT, a stylesheet won't be recognised as a stylesheet. If you found the namespace you're using for XSLT in a book or online, then you should contact the publisher or author to tell them that it's wrong. You also need to have a version attribute on the xsl:stylesheet element. I don't know where the result-ns attribute is coming from - probably WD-xsl, but it doesn't exist in XSLT. > <!-- Sample xml style sheet > Nova Southeastern University > --> > > <xsl:template match="TitlePage"> > <html:title> > <xsl:value-of select="DissTitle"/> > </html:title> > <html:body bgcolor="#efefef" font="Palatino Linotype" size="2"> > <xsl:value-of select="DissTitle"/> > </html:body> > </xsl:template> For valid XHTML, you should have a html document element and a head element, and a p element around the text in the body. So you should have something like: <xsl:template match="TitlePage"> <html:html> <html:head> <html:title> <xsl:value-of select="DissTitle"/> </html:title> </html:head> <html:body bgcolor="#efefef" font="Palatino Linotype" size="2"> <html:p> <xsl:value-of select="DissTitle"/> </html:p> </html:body> </html:html> </xsl:template> But I doubt that actually makes much difference to how it's displayed. The namespace is the most important thing. Cheers, Jeni --- Jeni Tennison http://www.jenitennison.com/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
