 Are there any special rules around XSLT processing of string values from attributes vs text() nodes? I've noticed the libxslt seems to strip out carriage returns. CRs are probably pretty rare in attribute values, but MSXML seems to handle them ok so I'm wondering if there any special rules I don't know about. I took a quick look through the XSLT spec and didn't seen anything. Here's how to reproduce it. Given this XML: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="U:\Active Workspace\Development\IKRS\CentralClassifier\libxslt-bug.xslt"?> <libxml> <foo a="alpha beta delta"/> </libxml> and this stylesheet: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/> <xsl:template match="foo"> <attribute><xsl:value-of select="@a"></xsl:value-of></attribute> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> MSXML produces: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <attribute>alpha beta delta</attribute> whereas libxslt produces: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <attribute>alpha beta delta</attribute> Any ideas? Thanks! Ramon
