[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Re: Added whitespace
 Hi,
I am using libxml2 as my processor. It might be good to have an alternative
one for experiments.
Here is my complete xml-file with comma after </person> and </place>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<raport type="D"><tables><table number="1">
<section type="MAIN" gen="1"><person sex="M">
<name><givenname>Kalle</givenname></name><notices>
<notice tag="NOTE">
<para>Erikoismerkkikoetta. Ensiksi henkilv <person
sex="U"><name><givenname>Kalle</givenname><surname>Kaila</surname></name></p
erson>, jonka perdssd piste ja sitten paikka <place>Bromarf</place>, jonka
perdssd piste. Lopussa on piste.</para>
</notice><notice
tag="OCCU"><para>Suunnittelija</para></notice></notices></person></section><
section type="CHIL" gen="2"><relation type="CHIL"><person
sex="F"><name><givenname>Camilla</givenname></name></person></relation></sec
tion></table></tables></raport>
===========
My xslt files are too big to add to the list but a few templates are:
<xsl:template match="text()">
<xsl:if test="local-name(..)!='givenname'">
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="notice">
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="@text"/>
<xsl:if test="@text">
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
<xsl:if test="@source != ''">
<xsl:variable name="sname" select="@source"/>
<a href="sources.html#S{$sname}" target="idx">[<xsl:value-of
select="@source"/>]</a>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="substring(.,string-length())!='.'">
<xsl:text>.</xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
==============
the resulting html looks like this:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<title>suku-testiraportti</title>
<link href="tables.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
</head>
<body>
<a name="T1"></a><div class="hdr">Taulu 1</div>
<div class="table">
<p>I.
<span class="name"> Kalle</span> Erikoismerkkikoetta. Ensiksi henkilv <span
class="name"> Kalle Kaila</span> , jonka perdssd piste ja sitten paikka
Bromarf , jonka perdssd piste. Lopussa on piste. Suunnittelija.</p>II
Lapset<div class="child"><span class="name"> Camilla</span></div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
=========
The problem now is the whitespace after Bromarf and after the Kaila</span>
before the comma.
place does not have any specific template but name tags have.

The evidence you show does not indicate this to be true:

The Recommendation does not provide for those spaces you are
witnessing. You do not say which processor you are using, but the evidence
as presented is that your processor is not conforming to the spec.
Section 5.8 of the spec explicitly indicates that no spaces are to be added:
<xsl:template match="*|/">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
So it sounds like a bug in your processor or there is a template rule in
your stylesheet that is catching the element and adding the spaces to the
result tree. Check for a template rule that matches all elements.
I hope this helps.
