Re: Dealing mixed content with invalid node-like text

Hello David,

Yes, I do process the content in 2 stages, preprocess into one form
of XML and then further process that to my final XML form. BUT, BOTH
are done in XSL with one signle file and the problem that I reported
is in first stage conversion itself. To make things even more clear,
here is a rough skeleton and explanation of my process.I get the
entire content of the input into a variable $input-text, and then
tokenize it to get each line of data into another variable, as
below.

<xsl:variable name="lines" select="tokenize($input-text, '\r?\n')"/>

<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
		xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
		xmlns:d="data:,dpc"
		exclude-result-prefixes="d"
		>

<xsl:variable name="in"><![CDATA[
Line one text <b>within valid node</b> and like <II .> Title etc
Line two with <1a .> Title etc, <i>within</i> <b>something</b> etc
another line can be just normal text
]]></xsl:variable>

<xsl:template name="main">
<out>
 <xsl:sequence select="d:htmlparse($in,'',false())"/>
</out>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

 saxon9 -it main a.xsl
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><out>
Line one text <b>within valid node</b> and like &lt;II .&gt; Title etc
Line two with &lt;1a .&gt; Title etc, <i>within</i> <b>something</b> etc
another line can be just normal text
</out>sh-4.1$ saxon9 -it main a.xsl
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><out>
Line one text <b>within valid node</b> and like &lt;II .&gt; Title etc
Line two with &lt;1a .&gt; Title etc, <i>within</i> <b>something</b> etc
another line can be just normal text
</out>
