Hi Yan,
the problem is in the variable. All spaces and linebreaks from <xsl:variable
name="link"> to </xsl:variable> will be stored in $link. To avoid this write
<xsl:variable name="link">../../details/invoice/detail_1.htm</xsl:variable>
or
<xsl:variable name="link">
<xsl:text>../../details/invoice/detail_1.htm</xsl:text>
</xsl:variable>
> <a>
> <xsl:attribute name="href">
> <xsl:value-of select="$link"/>
> </xsl:attribute>
> <xsl:value-of select="link_title"/>
> </a>
This can be shortened using attribute value template {}:
<a href="{$link}">
<xsl:value-of select="link_title"/>
</a>
Is there a must for the variable?
Why not writing <a href="../../details/invoice/detail_1.htm">?
Regards,
Joerg
