Are you looking for this[^]?

Or maybe you are looking for this element[^]

If not I don't understand what you want to do. Try using the tutorials and documentation on that site I linked to.

Also don't repost your messages in these forums. It is considered rude and is a waste of resources.

Hi, I'm new to XSL transformations so bear with me. I've got an xsl stylesheet where I'm trying to skip lines after each XML item called 'message'. I haven't figured out where to put my <br/> tags, and I also want to be able to change the font of my xml element node 'date' to a different font color. I'm brand new so I appreciate any help

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

Trim all innertext/attributes values with XSL

Hi,

I'm parsing a fixed size flat file document and convert it into XML, but I therefore have output like

<root>
    <foo bar="   lulz ">   zomg   </foo>
    <hello>  world</hello>
</root>

Which I'd like to look like:

<root>
    <foo bar="lulz">zomg</foo>
    <hello>world</hello>
</root>

Is there a way to do this with XSLT? I've tryed a copy/copy-of and normalize-space, but it doesn't give me the output I'd want. This is driving me insane.

Thanks!

Why don't you trim the spaces during the parsing/processing of the flat file?

You can use translate, a XPath function, with an empty replace string.

This cannot work as you need to know the structure of the document to apply translate.

I don't think this is possible, I've been searching the whole internet, and nothing came up. XSLT is such a stupid standard.

If you are using .NET, have you considered using Script Blocks using msxsl:script to create your own XSLT trimming function?

An even better solution is to use XsltArgumentList.

Also, what is normalize-space not doing to fit your needs?

I'm new to schematron and can't find any forums related to it, so if anyone can help I would appreciate it.

I want to check that if an element has a child (it might not) that the child is one of a pre-defined set of elements.

Eg.

if we have a fish_tank element it could have child elements of fish, gravel, filters, pirate_ship, etc

So here is what I think the scheme would be

<pattern name="aquarium">
    <rule context="child::fish_tank">
        <assert test="name()='fish' or name()='gravel' or name='pirate_ship'">Not a valid element!</assert>
    </rule>
</pattern>

That is unclear since you don't view anything in HTML. One views HTML in a browser.

Using XSL with removal of XSL reference. No idea what that means.
