I am using Xalan executable to do a trasformation. I give in the xml and
xsl files, and the output I get is not the expected xml file. The output
is a string of all element values in the input xml without any tags. It
does not give any errors.
That means the default rules are matched, which simply copies all text
nodes and attribute values to the result tree.
I am new to Xalan - any help is appreciated.
Without seeing a stylesheet or source document, it's difficult to guess
why you are not getting the expected result. Usually, when template
rules don't match, it's a namespace problem.
Perhaps you are transforming an XHTML document? The XHTML DTD adds a
default namespace, which will affect how you need to define the match
patterns in your templates.
I suggest you check out the XSLT FAQ and consider subscribing to the
Mulberry Technologies XSL list, which is the best forum for general
XSL(T) questions.
