|
| <xsl:template match="source">
| <xsl:apply-templates select="@id"/>
| <pre class="code">
|

|
| <xsl:template match="source">
| <xsl:apply-templates select="@id"/>
| <pre>
| <xsl:attribute name="class">

I've tested and it works just fine. I will try to file a bug report.
However, let me explained my original issue and why I did want to apply
a style to <pre> tag.
The problem with the <pre> tag is that it does not wrap long lines. So
if you have a log file dump or any thing else with very long the line,
the final document looks very ugly. So I found a solution to apply a
CSS:
.myskin {
font-size: 95%;
white-space: pre-wrap; /* css-3 */
white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; /* Mozilla, since 1999 */
white-space: -pre-wrap; /* Opera 4-6 */
white-space: -o-pre-wrap; /* Opera 7 */
word-wrap: break-word; /* Internet Explorer 5.5+ */
word-wrap:break-word;
}
( I have not invented this one, found it through google )
It worked fine both in Firefox and IE6 for <pre> tags. However, it does
not work so well for <p> tags in IE6 since IE6 does not really support
white-space: pre-wrap;. But hey who is using this old browser anyway ;)
I am documenting this because in the
Forrest-0.6\src\core\context\skins\common\xslt\html\document2html.xsl
I found this for the <pre> tag:
<!-- Temporarily removed long-line-splitter ... gives out-of-memory
problems -->
<xsl:apply-templates/>
<!--
<xsl:call-template name="format">
<xsl:with-param select="." name="txt" />
<xsl:with-param name="width">80</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:call-template>
-->
And if this is causing out-of-memory errors, then may be a CSS can be
applied (only for the <pre> tags) instead of XSL. Just a suggestion
