 Hello .
I'm transforming XML to HTML via XSL using IE5 too .
I put there Dave's solution with <xsl:script>, but it still strips the
whitespace.
Could You please look on my XML/XSL test files ?
What wrong here ?
XML :
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<?xml:stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="spaces1.xsl" xml:space="preserve"?>
<Screen >
<Spaces xml:space="preserve"> </Spaces>
<Field >This text should be shown with offset 20</Field>
</Screen>
XSL :
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl">
<xsl:template match="/">
<HTML xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl">
<BODY xml:space="preserve" >
<xsl:apply-templates select="Screen"/>
</BODY>
</HTML>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:script><![CDATA[
function getText(e) {
return (e.text);
}
]]></xsl:script>
<xsl:template match="Screen">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Field">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text()"><xsl:value-of /></xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Spaces">
<xsl:eval > getText(this) </xsl:eval>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Thanks ,
Orit .
