I am having difficulty dealing with text spread over several lines in an XML
doc such as:
<info>
This is some information.
This is paragraph number two.
There may be any number of paragraphs in this element.
</info>
I want to transform this into the following HTML:
<td>
This is some information.<br/><br/>This is paragraph number
two.<br/><br/>There may be any number of paragraphs in this element.
</td>
I am using a standard string replace template which is successfully replacing
line breaks but if I use <br/> as the replacement string, it gets ignored. If I
use <xsl:text><br/></xsl:text> I get the error message, "br is not allowed in
this position in the stylesheet".
Here is the code:
<xsl:call-template name="replace-substring">
<xsl:with-param name="original" select="oir:SETTINFO"></xsl:with-param>
<xsl:with-param name="substring">&cr;</xsl:with-param>
<xsl:with-param name="replacement"><xsl:text><br /></xsl:text></xsl:with-param>
</xsl:call-template>
where &cr; is declared: <!ENTITY cr "<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>">
I am using the latest xalan processor.
Does anyone know how to get round this?
