Hi,
I ran into a strange issue where I was running transforms on a Windows
platform, but under Cygwin. I was trying to parse a csv file.
The problem was that I was defining a variable for the newline, which
I expected would match the native system:
<xsl:variable name="nl">
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:variable>
and then parse the file like this:
<xsl:variable name="lines" select="tokenize($csv, $nl)" as="xs:string+" />
but it turns out that this does not really solve the issue of
mixed-source line endings since one or the other could have been
edited on a different file system. So I think this is a common issue
of parsing these kinds of files.
I was able to rely on normalize-space() to remove an extra CR, but
that function could make unwanted changes to other content.
Anyone recommend a safe way for this?
Thank you,
Hank
