Re: xml to html paragraphing


The xsl:copy-of does not work and finally i worked out my own problem
i used

<xsl:value-of select="Text" disable-output-escaping = "yes"  />
and i get a perfect html output with all the paragraph tags in tact

   in your xsl file just write something like:

   <xsl:template match="p">
   <xsl:copy><xsl:value-of select="."></xsl:copy>
   </xsl:template>

   all content include <p> should be copied to your html final.

NO!!!!
xsl:value-of produces the string value so will through away any
element children of th ep.
You just want <xsl:copy-of select="."/> as has been said by several
people already. Also you need to fix the source so there _is_ a p
element to match on not just th etext &lt;p&gt;.
