auto-indent

[oLi Bou]

hi all,
I'd like to auto-indent some xml code while rendering it to PDF (using FOP).
i thought about using whitespaces ( , , ) to do it but it doesn't seems to work ... does anyone have another idea ?
thx.

Hi,
U can try using this.
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>

it's not really a good solution ...
but i've got another one, which seems to be able to work : using <fo:block white-space-collapse="false">
but then i need to have my fo to look like this

<fo:block white-space-collapse="false" font-size="8" font-family="Courier" text-align="left">  <image2><fo:block/>   <src2><fo:block/>     c:/xmloop/images/qdsf.bmp<fo:block/>    </src2><fo:block/>  </image2><fo:block/></fo:block>

but it isn't really like this, sadly ...
when I've got my xml code

<code>
 <image2><newline/>
  <src2><newline/>
   c:/xmloop/images/qdsf.bmp<newline/>
  </src2><newline/>
 </image2><newline/>
</code>

and my stylesheet code

<xsl:template match="code">
 <fo:block text-align="left"
           font-family="Courier" 
           font-size="8"
           white-space-collapse="false">
   <xsl:apply-templates/>
 </fo:block>
</xsl:template>

it renders it in my fo more like

<fo:block white-space-collapse="false" font-size="8" font-family="Courier" text-align="left">  <image2><fo:block/>   <src2><fo:block/>
     c:/xmloop/images/qdsf.bmp<fo:block/>
    </src2><fo:block/> ;/image2><fo:block/></fo:block>

do you have some suggestion to get my fo to look great ?
thx

Unfortunately No!
but i think u can give a try with xsl:text where u can force white space etc.,
If u have mike kay book,plz give a read on page no 301.
Hmmm... Not a good reply from me.
