I've experienced these empty divs before as well. all you need to do is
somehting like this:
<div id="something">
<xsl:comment>keep this div not empty</xsl:comment>
</div>
and that should solve your problem of a self-closing element.
this way, you do not need to change your <xsl:output> from xml to html.
you can keep it:
<xsl:output method="xml">
to retain xhtml formatting.

Subject: [xsl] XSL transformation removing closing tag for empty div
Hi All,
I have a xsl which has an empty div:
<div class="somehting"></div>
I fill this div on the client side using javascript. Now, I
make an Ajax call and on the server side, I do transformation
in such a way that I get XML back as response to the Ajax
call. For this, I set the servlet response content type to be
text/xml. In doing so, the output of the transformation does
not contain the closing tag i.e it is changed to <div
class="something"/> . I would want it to keep the closing
tag. How can I achieve this?
Thanks in advance,
A D
