Sorry for the long turn around, took an unexpected vacation. :) Unfortunately I've already tried the no-indent-strip-space-all-elements solution without success. I tried it again just to be sure and it still didn't work. Following are snippets from relevant files.
I've truncated the attributes of the tags so line wrapping doesn't distract from the problem. All comments are also added. In case it matters I'm using a completely stock cocoon 2.0.1 under Tomcat 4.0.1 on RedHat 7.1. My content looks like this: <document> <title><!-- This is the Title --></title> <content> <!-- Some XHTML content --> </content> </document> My XSL looks like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0" xml:space="preserve"> <xsl:output indent="no" /> <xsl:strip-space elements="*" /> <xsl:template match="document"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title><xsl:value-of select="title"/></title> <!-- layout tables which are also improperly spacing --> <xsl:value-of select="content"/> <!-- Then some popup menus, also improperly spacing --> <div id="aboutnav" class="where"> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="116"> <tr> <td><a href="..."><img name="mission" src="..."/></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="..."><img name="mission" src="..."/></a></td> </tr> ... </table> </div> </body> </html> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> The output like this: <div class="where" id="aboutnav"> <table width="116" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"> <tr> <td> <a href="with attribs reordered"> <img src="also with attribs reordered"/> </a> </td> </tr> ... Finally if it is relevant I'm using a nested sitemap: <?xml version="1.0"?> <map:sitemap xmlns:map="http://apache.org/cocoon/sitemap/1.0"> <!-- =========================== Components ================== --> <map:components> <map:generators default="file"/> <map:transformers default="xslt"/> <map:readers default="resource"/> <map:serializers default="html"/> <map:selectors default="browser"/> <map:matchers default="wildcard"/> </map:components> <!-- =========================== Pipelines =================== --> <map:pipelines> <map:pipeline> <map:match pattern="**/*.jcp" type="wildcard"> <map:generate type="file" src="{1}/{2}.jcp"/> <map:transform type="xslt" src="{1}/template.jtp"/> <map:serialize/> </map:match> </map:pipeline> <!-- There's another pipeline for unparsed content (images, etc), and another for unavailable content right here. --> </map:pipelines> </map:sitemap> Basically if the spacing in the stylesheet could be maintained into the output then it would work fine, but instead extra line returns are being placed at the end of every tag. Any way to stop this short of modifying the code in cocoon? Thanks, Corey On Tue, 2002-03-26 at 02:52, Bert Van Kets wrote: > I had the same problem.
