hi

I have a problem with processing <xsl:comment> using Stylus Studio.
The whole <xsl:comment> element gets ignored within Stylus Studio and nothing is planted in my output HTML. Is this a known problem?

Some sample code:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:mff="XalanTransExt"
exclude-result-prefixes="mff "
version="1.0">
...
<xsl:output doctype-public='-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "loose.dtd' />
<xsl:template match="/">
...
<html>
<head> ...</head>
<xsl:comment>Generated from transformed XML</xsl:comment>
<body> ...

I'm using an old Xalan-J processor. I have the Stylus Studio processor option set to Xalan-J, and all the classpath options point to some jars for my old Xalan parser, followed by Stylus Studio's classpath, like this:

old-xalan-jars;directory-for-my-extension-functions;${classpath}

The <xsl:comment> element is processed ok when I transform using my command line and the old xalan processor.

If you have any ideas on this, I'd be very grateful.

Thanks
Peta

Hi Peta,

You probably see an empty result because you are using "Preview in Browser";
The stylesheet doesn't output html visible elements so you get an empty canvas.

Try to click on "Preview Text" you sould see everything (see attached image)

Gosh I can't get one right today :(

I can replicate the problem with the embedded XalanJ.
A fix will be available with the next update.

Sorry for the troubles

Thanks for the thought Ivan, but that's not it. I am using Preview Text.

I've got the same xsl as in your screen capture, but my HTML just doesn't show the comment. I assume this is because I'm using a different Xalan proccessor from the one provided in Stylus Studio. I will upgrade to the latest parser at some stage, but I can't do it yet.

My old xalan processor handles the comments ok at the command line, so I have put my old xalan first on the classpath before Stylus Studio's $classpath. Shouldn't that invoke the old parser rather than the Xalan-J provided with Stylus Studio? Or am I barking up completely the wrong tree?

thanks again
Peta
