RE: how to embed this complicated set of characters into the result file via an XSL

2004-01-25 09:34:55
The problem is that it has such a weird set of characters 
that my attempted methods (tried and failed, as explained 
below) are not working.

Word's angle-bracket syntax is neither XML nor HTML, so neither the XML
nor HTML output methods in XSLT can generate it. You have two options:

(a) write your own output method (many XSLT processors allow this, for
example by subclassing the standard methods)

(b) use disable-output-escaping to generate angle-brackets directly,
without causing them to be escaped.

The first approach is architecturally cleaner, but the second is
probably quicker.

METHODS I HAVE TRIED AND FAILED:

METHOD 1:

Using a CDATA section:

<![CDATA[

<!--[if gte mso 9]>
<xml>
 <o:DocumentProperties>
  <o:Author>Luau Document Builder - Rendering Engine - 
asanwal(_at_)mw2consulting(_dot_)com</o:Author>
  <o:LastAuthor>Luau Document Builder</o:LastAuthor>
  <o:Revision>0</o:Revision>
  <o:Created>2000-01-01T02:59:00Z</o:Created>
  <o:LastSaved>2000-01-01T02:59:00Z</o:LastSaved>
  <o:Company>MW2 Conulting</o:Company>
 </o:DocumentProperties>
</xml>
<![endif]-->

<!--[if gte mso 9]>
<xml>
 <w:WordDocument>
  <w:TrackRevisions/>
 </w:WordDocument>
</xml>
<![endif]-->

]]>


METHOD 2:

Using an external file where the given text is put with and 
without CDATA sections.

<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [
<!ENTITY mswordmarkup SYSTEM "mswordmarkup.dat">
]>

I can never get the required output. The text does not get 
included or it gets loaded with &lt; & &gt; stuff.

BTW - These are the XSL settings I have for the output etc.

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" 
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; 
xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";>
<xsl:output method="html" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>


Please suggest a way to get this done so that I can have in 
included into my resulting HTML when I execute the XSLs.

(If you might be suggesting a break up of the given TEXT to 
allow inclusion please SHOW me how I should break it up to 
have it included AS IT IS NEEDED in the HTML)

Thanks,
