[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] RE: Line Numbering
 I thank all that have looked at this, but yes Mike you are correct. My end result is an xml document that has line numbers starting from the top of the page and incrementing till the end of the document. I would like to do this with a transformation as it is view only, I do not need to serialize it. 1 This would be line one. It would break and become line two 2 after sixty charecters. The actual line numbers would not be 3 included in the sixty charecters. I will look at all the replys and see what I can get from them in hopes that I can find an answer to my question. -----Original Message----- From: owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Mike Brown Sent: Tuesday, August 15, 2000 7:04 AM To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Line Numbering Jeni Tennison wrote: > >I know that xml is not about formatting, but I need to transform some xml > >to html that will allow me to put sixty charecters on a line and then break. > > This is best done with a recursive named template to which you pass the > string and that outputs it 60 characters at a time. That will just give you short strings. I was under the impression that he wants the serialized result tree to be subjected to the hard limit. For example, this is undesirable: <html> <head> <title>this title is less than 60 characters</title> </head> .... It would need to have <title> wrapped onto 2 lines because even though the text in the title is short, the line of output (including start/end tags and indenting) exceeds the 60 character limit. - Mike ____________________________________________________________________ Mike J.
