Subject: RE: [xsl] href problem...using CDATA needed?
That is how I originally had it. Tom tells me to get my html
working, it's
not an xslt problem. But it appears to be something I'm doing
wrong with the
@url reference...?
Regardless of my template etc., why would THIS work:
<xsl:template match="link">
<a href="{(_at_)url}"><xsl:apply-templates/></a>
</xsl:template>
That's a straightforward hyperlink, so assuming @url is a valid URL, this
would behave no differently than if you wrote <a
href="http://www.my-url.com";>Text from XML</a>. If you added
target="_blank" or something similar as Ken suggested, then the link would
open in a new browser.
and NOT this:
<xsl:template match="link">
<a href="javascript:window.open('{(_at_)url}','Link Window',
'toolbar=1,
menubar=1, resizable=1, dependent=0, status=0,
width=400, height=300, left=25, top=25')">
<xsl:apply-templates/></a>
</xsl:template>
I'm assuming this is a direct paste from your stylesheet? If so, then my
guess is that the hard return between 'toolbar=1,' and 'menubar=1' is the
culprit. JavaScript is generally oblivious to whitespace--unless it occurs
within a literal string, such as the arguments to window.open(). Newlines
within a literal string, unless they're escaped with '\n', will easily break
function calls and the like. Be sure the window.open() call is contained on
a single line.
And Tom is correct--this isn't really an XSLT problem. ;-)
