Good day,
This is in relation to my earlier posts, but I have not yet been able
to solve my problem. I have tried working around the problem below,
but because of the type of information I'm working with (labeling and
vector graphics), I can't get past the fact that sometimes I end up
with attributes that will get part of their content from other parts
of the XML document.
Can anyone please share some ideas around evaluating information for
use inside xml attributes. I know it's ugly, horrible and terrible to
escape XML an dump it inside an attribute, but I need to reference
content by id from inside attributes from time to time. I can move
attributes out into child elements, but this can become even more
confusing.
I don't think it is a good approach to store markup in attributes but if
you want to parse it with Saxon 9 (any 9.1 or the commercial 9.2
versions) then use the saxon:parse extension function
