<xsl:apply-templates> effect on DOM object type?

C.W.Holeman II

I am using Firefox 2.0.0.3 on MSWindows.
I have an XML file http://emle.sourceforge.net/emle020000/testb.xml
which invokes an XSLT file http://emle.sourceforge.net/emle020000/testb.xsl

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="testb.xsl " type="text/xsl"?>
<z xmlns:xsi="http ://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<x/>
</z>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:styleshe et version="1.0"

<xsl:output

indent="yes"
doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
doctype-system="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dt d"

<xsl:template match="/z">

<body onload="init(); ">

</html>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="x">
<span>
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" />
</span>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
The result of the transform is:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0

xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head

document, null, XPathResult.FIR ST_ORDERED_NODE _TYPE, null)
..singleNodeVal ue; var div = document.evalua te("//xhtml:div", document,
lu, XPathResult.FIR ST_ORDERED_NODE _TYPE, null) .singleNodeValu e;

displays span as an Element object and the div as an HTMLDivElement.

The alert displays span as an Element object and the div as an

XSLT is namespace-aware. Your stylesheet copies a <spanelement with no
namespace into the output document, which means it won't be recognized
as being an XHTML span element.

Change your code to:

<xsl:template match="x">
<span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" />
</span>
</xsl:template>

Add
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
to the xsl:stylesheet element, that way all your literal XHTML elements
will be in the XHTML namespace. Otherwise in any template you write you
will need to make sure that the XHTML default namespace declaration is
set for XHTML elements.

That does it. Thanks again. Corrected and working version:

State of Dynamically Created controls on PostBack?

by: Amelyan | last post by:

How can I get state of dynamically created controls (RadioButton, CheckBox, TextBox.Text) on post back when I click submit button? The only way I know is by traversing Response.Form enumberator; Response.Form.GetEnumerator(), etc. while, identifying specific controls by programmatically assigned unique id (e.g. MyButton_AnswerID_123). However, I am not sure if that is the proper way. What is the common practice?

stylus studio and <HEAD>

Hi, Something mysterious has happened to my stylus studio project as I've added changes to the XSL file that renders html output. Before, the output included the <HEADand <BODYtags for the HTML output, even though I did nothing explictly to cause this. Now, they are missing in the HTML output. Is this a project setting in stylus studio, or is it an artifact of the various apply-template commands in the XSL file? Or something else. ...
