Dear xsl-list
I am new to XSL and have been playing for a few days, using for my education
the web (brilliant tool that it is). I want to use XSL to transform an XML
document (generated by the ADODataSet.SaveToFile() method) into CSV format. All
pretty straightforward for a novice, and I've achieved what I'm after - but I
have an aesthetic question.
For readability I would prefer the XSL file to look nicely nested like this:
<xsl:variable name="new_line" select="'
'"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="xml/rs:data/z:row">
<xsl:value-of select="@field1"/>,
<xsl:value-of select="@field2"/>,
...
<xsl:value-of select="@fieldn"/>
<xsl:value-of select="$new_line"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
Unfortunately, this means that each value ends up on its own line. Placing each
element in one long line in the XSL solves the problem but is hard to read (to
say the least).
Any ideas?
Thanks
Stuart
