Shailendra GodboleSubject: XML / XSL DOM Problem
Author: Shailendra Godbole
Date: 28 Dec 2005 03:50 PM
I have an XML file which is having escape charecters like & The Tag data is company name for eg. Hinderson & Co. when what it actually means is Hinderson & Co.

I have an XSL that processes this XML file. If I am viewing the data in explorer (IE 5-6) it shows me correctly. However if I load the XMl file and XSL file in 2 DOM objects and then use the transformNode method of DOM it gives me data with same & and more over it also adds and line break in between the data which when transformed results into 2 rows.

I tried things like
1. PrserveWhiteSpace=False
2. Some Escape="yes" header for XSL but invain

Can you help

Thanks
SG

Two different questions.

If you don't want to escape output, you'll neet to let the XSLT processor know:
<xsl:value-of select="something" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>

About whitespaces/newlines in the XSLT output to the result: XSLT processors will ignore any ignorable whitespace.
So, something like...
<xsl:value-of .../>

<xsl:value-of .../>
...will not output any newline, because the whitespace between the two instructions can be ignored. On the other hand, if you do:
<xsl:value-of .../>,

<xsl:value-of .../>
...will output a comma followed by two newlines, because the whitespaces cannot be ignored. If you don't want to do...
<xsl:value-of .../>,<xsl:value-of .../>
...you could do...
<xsl:value-of .../>
<xsl:text>,<xsl:text/>
<xsl:value-of .../>

In neither case you'll have a newline output to the result.

As a suggestion for the future, a good place for general XSLT-specific questions is the xsl-list at http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list/index.html

Hope this helps,
Minollo

Nope it still have same problem.
Let me give an example

<!-- The base XML -->

<LEVEL1>
<LEVEL2>
<LEVEL3>
<CName>Hinderson (5013)
&amp; Co. #1 abcd</CName>
</LEVEL3>
<LEVEL3>
.....
</LEVEL2>
</LEVEL1>

My XSL is
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
CNAME<BR/>
<xsl:for-each select="/LEVEL1/LEVEL2/LEVEL3">
<xsl:value-of select="CName" disable-output-escaping="yes"/><BR/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

If I run it in Stylus Studio (using any processor) I see the "&" returned unescaped; in your case you might be seeing it escaped as a side effect of the way you are retrieving the result?
