Re: disappearing line breaks within an element
 Hi Michael,
thanks for your suggestions.
I had to do some checking up, as I couldn't reproduce your results with my
xslt.
Today I ran some tests with a simple file and a new XSL stylesheet. And things
turn out to be even more confusing that I though:
This is my input file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<test>a
b
C
D</test>
With this stylesheet
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="2.0">
<xsl:output name="inhalt" method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes" />
<xsl:preserve-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:template match="test">
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I get
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<test>a
b
C
D</test>
If the template is
<xsl:template match="test">
<html>
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</html>
</xsl:template>
the result is this:
<html>
<test>abCD</test>
</html>
As I'm using Oxygen, I checked if the results were the same if I called saxxon
from the command line, and they are.
I do hope the #xd codes are not converted into line breaks when I send this
mail. So, probably to prevent problems with browsers, the line-break codes are
eliminated whenever I output to a descendent of an html-element.
Regards
CJ
