Re: Pagebreaks in Excel-HTML transformer

2006-02-03 14:47:12
If I run it through XMLSpy2006, I do get page-break-after properly inserted,
but I couldn't open it normally with either Excel (was all screwed up)
or IE6 (looks like 1 long page, if I do Print Preview, it creates 10 blank 
pages
and then puts all without any page breaks).

In order to open it in IE with Excel plug-in,
we put the HTML Serializer with the mime type "application/ms-excel"

I just checked, that serializer removes all "page-break-after"
and inserts "page-break-before" where it pleases (e.g. incorrectly)
What should I do ?

I was able to open the file normally with Excel 2000. All the pages broke where 
you would expect them to break.

I observed the same blank pages problem with Netscape Mozilla, Firefox, and IE.

At this point your problem is no longer with XSLT, but instead with how the 
browsers or the HTML serializer handle your HTML.

I don't claim any special knowledge in these areas and you have moved beyond 
XSL matters. You will have to take up these issues with other mailing lists or 
paid support organizations. If you learn why the paging works the way it does 
and how the HTML should be formed, we can help you with the XSLT. Until we know 
what output you want, there's not much more we can offer.
