Works like a charm.

Thanks for the quick response!

Add this template:
  <xsl:template match="description" />
It will prevent the default template from outputting the content of the
<description> element other than when you call it explicitly with
:<xsl:value-of select="description"/>.

Change this:
<xsl:value-of select="current()"/>
to this:
<xsl:value-of select="translate(text(),' &#10;&#09;','')"/>

I will strip out the CR/LF and the TAB characters you don't want by
replacing them with empty strings.

Hi Guys,

My fist post on this mailing list. Just started learning xsl yesterday, and
already come across an issue which I cannot solve with the W3C tutorial ...
:

Below are my xml & xls file:

________________ XML FILE _______________________

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<items>
	<item>
	   title 1
	   <description>description 1</description>
	</item>
	<item>
	   title 2
	   <description>description 2</description>
	</item>
</items>
_________________________________________________

________________ XLS FILE _______________________
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> 

  <xsl:template match="items">
    <xsl:apply-templates select="item"/>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="item">
    title:<xsl:value-of select="current()"/>
    description:<xsl:value-of select="description"/>
  </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet> ___________________________________________________

I don't get
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    title:title 11
    description:description 1

But ...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    title:
	   title 1
	   description 1
	
    description:description 1
    title:
	   title 2
	   description 2
	
    description:description 2

What changes do I have to make to my xls file to get the output I want?

Thank you for you help.

Emmanuel
