Line Breaks to BR in HTML Output

["Russell Seymour" <russell.seymour@turtlesystems.co.uk>]

Good afternoon list,

 

I know there is a lot of information about this topic on the Internet, but I have not yet found a way to convert the LF in the XML document to BR tags in the outputtted HTML with a DocBook customsation.

 

I create a DocBook from various data sources, which are primarily databases.  The text that comes back can include the LF characters and these are transposed to the XML document.

 

I need to keep thm in there as I am using this XML to output as various file formats, PDF and HTML.

 

Does anyone know of a way to add some customisation to the HTML XSL that will render the LF as BR tags?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
