Hey all,
I've been trying to maintain a large app at work that uses an XML
stylesheet to return valid HTML from XML documents stored in a CVS
repositry.
To make the story short, I've been trying to learn XSL in the vauge hope
it'll make life easier if I know what I'm trying to maintain :)
But I've already ran into a problem. I want to create a stylesheet that
will basically take in a "page" element, containing multiple "news" items.
Each "news" item will have a "author" value, a subject (the name of the
item), and a set of text.
For some reason the stylesheet I'm using prints the formatted text fine,
but then images the original text. I'm sure there's a fundimental concept
I'm missing here :)
Eg, I want this:
<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>A page</TITLE></HEAD><BODY>
Subject: Blah
Author: Me
Hello, I am a news item.
This is line 2.
</BODY></HTML>
What I get is this:
<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>A page</TITLE></HEAD><BODY>
Subject: Blah
Author: Me
Hello, I am a news item.
This is line 2.
Me Hello, I am a news item.
This is line 2.
</BODY></HTML>
With the second part just a phantom.
Here's the XML I'm starting with:
www.nehahra.com/test.xml
Here's the XSL I'm trying to apply:
www.nehahra.com/test.xsl
Thanks in advance :)
