Re: is there something like an xsl:ignore tag?

you could use <xsl:comment> but 
this will generate <!-- aLiteral -->
into the result.

But, will dreamweaver know what to do with the 
templates anyway?

<table>
<tr>
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="some_data"/><xsl:comment>aLiteral</xsl:comment>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Subject: is there something like an xsl:ignore tag?


| Is there a way to ignore text inside a template:
| 
| For example: I have the following template
| 
| <xsl:template name="test">
| <table>
| <tr>
| <td>
| <xsl:value-of select="some_data"/>
| </td>
| </tr>
| </table>
| </xsl:template>
| 
| I want someone to be able to open up the test template in an html tool such
| as dreamweaver and see the table with a value in it.  Is there a way to do
| something like the template below so "aLiteral" shows up in the cell when
| viewed in the html tool, but "aLiteral" is ignored by the xsl processor:
| 
| <xsl:template name="test">
| <table>
| <tr>
| <td>
| <xsl:value-of select="some_data"/><xsl:ignore>aLiteral</xsl:ignore>
| </td>
| </tr>
| </table>
| </xsl:template>
