Woohoo. I got almost everything I wanted. Thanks for all the help guys. Now whats left is to remove the 'xmlns=""' that is put in a lot of the code. Any suggestions? -----Original Message----- From: owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of John Hamman Sent: Friday, March 12, 2004 12:22 PM To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: [xsl] xsl and xml CDATA or Not question Thanks for your reply and help. The extra </a> was left in by accident. I removed some code that didn't need to be there in the <p> . Forgive me for my improper terminology. I have now removed the CDATA and am using xsl:copy-of. But my problem is not rendering the Formated version, which comes out perfect. My problem is in the text only XLS version. This is my current code with extras taken out to save room. <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:asp="remove"> <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" encoding="utf-8" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="Page" xml:space="preserve"> <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> </head> <body> <xsl:apply-templates select="Content"/> </body> </html> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="Content" xml:space="preserve"> <xsl:copy-of select="node()"/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="//*/img"> <xsl:for-each select="@*"> [image: <xsl:value-of select="." />] <xsl:if test="((name()='alt') or (name()='ALT') or (name()='Alt')) and (normalize-space(.)!='')"> [image: <xsl:value-of select="." />] </xsl:if> </xsl:for-each> <xsl:apply-templates /> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> -----Original Message----- From: owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Peter Flynn Sent: Friday, March 12, 2004 11:57 AM To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [xsl] xsl and xml CDATA or Not question On Fri, 2004-03-12 at 15:49, John Hamman wrote: > hello experts, > If i have some html in a xml field like below.

Putting it in a CDATA section means you want it treated as plain text. That's what CDATA sections are for. What is wrong with (indents added for illustration only): <Content> <br/> <br/> <center> <div id="TextOnlyLink"> <a href="/page.aspx?textonly">[Text Only]</a> </div> <div id="centerImg"> <img src="/pub/en-us/images/clear-path-soon.jpg" alt="the alt tag" width="712" height="223"/> </div> <p>blah blah blah*</p> </center> </Content> * I've removed the spurious </a> which must be a corruption. If you are being supplied with this by someone else, tell them to generate well-formed XHTML otherwise it can't be processed. They've taken the trouble to add the / at the end of the <img/> element, so I'm not clear why they felt it important to add a meaningless </a> and then deliberately prevent it being used as XHTML. > my formated xsl is just this > <xsl:value-of select="//Content" disable-output-escaping="yes"/> With the above you can use the xsl:copy-of that David suggests. > but my question is how do i take that contnet and be able to use it in a way > with another "text only" xsl sheet that might make it output like this > > <a href="/page.aspx">[Formated]</a> > [img: the alt tag] > <p>blah blah blah<p> Tip: alt is not a tag, it's an attribute on the img element type. > Any ideas. Im sure im missing something somewhere. Should i get rid of the > CDATA and figure a way to output it as regular HTML in the formated version? Yes. If it's XHTML, then handle it as such. ///Peter XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
