AW: preserve structure of xml?

Hi,

I am using MSXML 4.0 and I don't have problems with preserving whitespace.
My xsl uses xsl:copy. The indenting is preserved too.

Here is my output declaration.
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"
omit-xml-declaration="no"/>

How do you call MSXML 4.0 and what is your stylesheet, your XML?

Juergen

  For example the <xsl:output indent="yes"/> is ignored by msxml, so your
  indenting is gone.
  That doesn't explain why everything is on one line though......


No that isn't why indenting goes with msxml if you copy the source.
In that case the indentation that was there should be copied so the XSLK
system shouldn't need to add further white space to achieve indentation.

The reason it is there is because by default msxml doesn't conform to
the XML spec, and discards white space before XSLT gets a chance to copy
it.
