RE: DOCTYPE and <xsl:preserve-space>

That I think is obvious, you just need an association with the spec your
using (ie. XSLT, etc.)

The XML file that I'm trying to generate should have an associated DTD for
it. Yet how do you place the DOCTYPE value at the top? I've tried
encapsulating the area with CDATA[] yet that didn't work.

I want to generate:

<?xml version="1.0">
<!DOCTYPE docRoot PUBLIC "-//B-Bop Associates//myDTD v0.1//EN"
"myDTD-00_01.dtd">
<docRoot>
  ... xml info here ...
</docRoot>

You'll need to provide a code sample. There are several possible
explanations.

Here is the xml generated from a simple xsl file:

<?xml version="1.0"?><!-- $Id: w2f.xsl,v 1.1 1999/09/10 00:05:08 earl Exp
$ --><!-- myxml.xml
file --><compReport><reportId><number>1234</number><rev>5678</rev></reportId
><metaReport><reportDate ...

This has the tags with no carriage return, line-feeds, etc. I normally could
use:

<xsl:stylesheet
  indent-result="yes"
  xmlns:xsl='http://www.w3.org/XSL/Transform/1.0'
   >

and it would indent nicely, but that has changed to use the <xsl:output ...>
which doesn't
include any examples of within the latest WD-XSLT.

I am using the latest xt.exe from http://www.jclark.com/xml/xt.html
