Re: <br />'s double-space after XSL transformation - update


Jim,

You were right.  I ran the transformation at the command line using MSXSL
and discovered that every <br/> in the xhtml is transformed to <br
clear="none"></br>. 

Any ideas how I can make <br/> just copy to <br/>?

Thanks again--I really appreciate the suggestions and assistance.

Kathryn

Each of the <br/>'s above results in a double space.  Any ideas?  (XSL code
appears below, in original email).

Thanks again,

well thats because its probably taking a <br /> and replacing it with
<br></br> and for some strange reason its interpreting as 2 br's ??

i am certain that the problem is some default setting with your code for
transformation, as using any cmd line processor this is not an issue. So you
may have to force the correct output type via code instead of within
<xsl:output/> tag,

good luck,jim fuller
