functions text in java
Hello Manfred!

You probably forgot about whitespace only text nodes in your xml document. msxml by default strips all of them, but xslt spec says they must be preserved - this is why the results are so different. Try <xsl:strip-space elements="*"/> at the top level of your stylesheet.

Hi all,

function text() doesn't work right in Xalan (Java) and in Saxon. With MSXML3 it works fine, but I need a Java based processor.

My XML-document looks like :
<formalpara>
        <title>
          <token> §1 </token>
        Chapter 1
        </title>
</formalpara>

XSL looks:
<xsl:template match="title" mode="next">
    <fo:table-row>
      <fo:table-cell padding-after="4mm" padding-before="4mm">
        <fo:block font-weight="bold">
          <xsl:value-of select="token"/>
        </fo:block>
      </fo:table-cell>
      <fo:table-cell>
        <fo:block font-weight="bold" padding-after="4mm"
padding-before="4mm">
          <xsl:value-of select="text()"/>
        </fo:block>
      </fo:table-cell>
    </fo:table-row>
  </xsl:template>

With MSXML3 I get : §1 Chapter 1
but with Xalan or Saxon I get only: §1
Using <xsl:value-of select="."/> instead of <xsl:value-of select="text()"/>
I get: §1 §1 Chapter1


Does anyone can help ?
