I am using MSXML3 running in replace mode on NT.
I'm doing a server side parse of XML and XSLT in VB as such(viewing in
IE5.5):
<%
xmlDir = "/ContentMng/"
sXml = xmlDir & "test.xml"
if Instr(Request("HTTP_USER_AGENT"),"MSIE")>0 then
sXsl = xmlDir & "test.xsl"
end if
Set oXmlDoc = Server.CreateObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument")
Set oXslDoc = Server.CreateObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument")
oXmlDoc.async = false
oXmlDoc.preserveWhiteSpace=true
oXslDoc.async = false
oXslDoc.preserveWhiteSpace=true
oXmlDoc.load(Server.MapPath(sXml))
oXslDoc.load(Server.MapPath(sXsl))
' Error Checking
If oXmlDoc.parseError.errorCode <> 0 Then
response.write ("Error: " + doc.parserError.reason)
End If
Response.Write oXmlDoc.transformNode(oXslDoc)
%>
My xml contains white space and line breaks like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Careers_List xml:space="preserve" >
<joblisting>
<id>1</id>
<jobTitle>Java Developer</jobTitle>
<Description>We are seeking
ng an experienced Java Developer to take
charge of Interface
Development
</Description>
</joblisting>
</Careers_List>
The problem is my Description element text still outputs like this:
"We are seeking an experienced Java Developer to take charge of Interface
Development"
No white space or line breal preservation. Why is this happening?
