Re: spacing issues when working with the Saxon processor with Stylus

What release are you on?  The current release of Stylus Studio,
which is Stylus Studio 6 Release 3, does in fact include Saxon 8.4.
You can update your copy at http://www.stylusstudio.com/update/
Free support is also available at http://www.stylusstudio.com/SSDN/

I think that the Saxon version packaged with Stylus is a release or two
behind the latest. The XSLT 2.0 spec has changed in this area to remove the
usability problem that you're hitting, and Saxon has changed with it.

Simplest fix is to change this:

<xsl:element

name="a"><xsl:attribute name="href"><xsl:text>#!--
#ID:</xsl:text><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(translate(tlc, '
', ''))"/><xsl:text> </xsl:text>--#</xsl:attribute>Table of
Legislative Changes.</xsl:element>


to this:

<a href="#!-- #ID:{normalize-space(translate(tlc, ' ', ''))} --#">Table of
Legislative Changes.</a>

(though note that if you're generating HTML, the value of the href attribute
is required to be a URI, and this is anything but!).

Subject: [xsl] spacing issues when working with the Saxon processor with Stylus

Hi everyone,

I am having difficulty with a spacing issue in a link. I've been able
to recreate the problem with a stripped down verision of my stylesheet
and xml:

XSLT

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
        <xsl:output method="html" indent="no" omit-xml-declaration="yes"
encoding="ISO-8859-1" name="html"/>
        <xsl:strip-space elements="tlc"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
                        <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="currency">
        <html>
                <body>
                <table>
                <xsl:if test="/descendant::tlc">
                        <tr>
<td colspan="4" class="tabletext">This Act has &quot;Not in
Force&quot; sections. <em>See</em> the <xsl:element
name="a"><xsl:attribute name="href"><xsl:text>#!--
#ID:</xsl:text><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(translate(tlc, '
', ''))"/><xsl:text> </xsl:text>--#</xsl:attribute>Table of
Legislative Changes.</xsl:element></td>
                        </tr>
                </xsl:if>
                </table>
                </body>
        </html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

XML:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<currency>
<tlc>E2tlc96159</tlc>
</currency>

Results:

<html><body><table><tr><td colspan="4" class="tabletext">This Act has
"Not in Force" sections. <em>See</em> the <a href="#!-- #ID:
E2tlc96159   --#">Table of Legislative
Changes.</a></td></tr></table></body></html>

The problem is the link,,

<a href="#!-- #ID: E2tlc96159   --#">

should be,

<a href="#!-- #ID:E2tlc96159  --#">

If you can't make it out in the email there should be 1 less space
after the final "9" before the dash, and no space between the "ID:"
and the "E"..

Any thoughts would really help me out.

Spencer
