 I'm facing with a problem concerning ignorable whitespace text nodes. I use an XSLT stylesheet with the <xsl:strip-space elements="*"/> instruction in order to avoid any redundancy. I pass a Node object (say: myNode -- see the attached code), obtained from an XPath evaluation, to the XSLT transformer as a parameter (named "siteMap"), but the resulting transformation preserves *just* and *only* the whitespaces coming from *that* parameter nodeset: it seems that the XSLT parser is unable to deal properly with pre-constructed nodesets. I want to stress that the rest of the transformed content (from the main XML source) works perfectly (all whitespaces are stripped as expected). Is this a standard-compliant behavior? How can I force XPath resulting Node to ignore redundant whitespace text nodes? Thanks in advance! --------------------- My code snippet: import javax.xml.transform.*; import javax.xml.xpath.*; import org.w3c.dom.*; import org.xml.sax.*; { [snip] // Define the XPath evaluator! XPath xPath = XPathFactory.newInstance().newXPath(); // Get the DOM representation of the root node via XPath evaluation! Node myNode = (Node) xPath.evaluate( "/rootTag", new InputSource(sourcePath + "siteMap.xml"), XPathConstants.NODE ); [snip] // Get the page xslt transformer! Transformer pageTransformer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer(pageStyle); pageTransformer.setParameter("siteMap", myNode); [snip] }
