Subject: Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: XSL customization layer question
Bob Stayton came to the rescue with: >>>> Two things: 1. The test attribute won't respond properly to '>'; you should use test="position() > 1". Fun, huh? <<<< Oddly, it seems to have no trouble with the '>' in that position. It works both ways. I replaced the '>' though. >>>> 2. If you are looking to output literal whitespace, then use the <xsl:text> element: <xsl:template match="cmdsynopsis"> <xsl:if test="position() > 1"> <xsl:text> </xsl:text></xsl:if> </xsl:if> <xsl-apply-templates/> </xsl:template> That's carriage return and four space characters inside the <xsl:text> element. <<<< Okay, I figured the second </xsl:if> was a typo, and it worked. Then I discovered I didn't need the four spaces, the carriage return occurs inside of the indent and keeps the indent. Funny thing: the carriage return doesn't seem to work unless I have a carriage return *and* at least one space in between the xsl:text tags. Is there anything special I need to do to get the carriage return to work without any spaces? Thanks.
