hi-
i have a document A that imports document B.
in the <xsl:output> instruction, document B specifies doctype-public and
doctype-system attributes. in document A, i want to disable output of
doctypes, as we add the doctype declaration at another point in our production
pipeline (ie, not in the xsl).
here's the relevant code for document A (importing):
<xsl:output
method="html"
indent="no"
encoding="UTF-8"
omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
and here's the relevant code for document B (imported):
<xsl:output
method="html"
indent="yes"
encoding="UTF-8"
doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
doctype-system="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"/>
simply omitting the doctype statements in the importing document does not
disable the output of doctype statements. according to michael kay's book, a
specified attribute within <xsl:output> takes precedence over an omitted
attribute, regardless of which document it's in (importing or imported).
i have tried adding a name attribute to the importing statement, to try to
create a new output definition, with no success. i have also tried using
doctype-public="" and doctype-system="" in the importing document, but these
simply output a doctype statement with a "" value.
is there a way to completely disable the output of these statements in the
resulting html, given that i can't modify the imported document?
i'm using saxon 8.7, and xsl 2.0.
any insight into this issue would be much appreciated.
thanks-
lynn
