Hello, I am trying to get my xml to format just the way I need it. A little background. I am using a flash piece which has 'site news' displaying with an xml document. I then have another button below the flash piece that says "view all news items", which I am trying to format.
Here is the xml:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="news.xsl"?>
<NEWS>
<item>
<date day="30" month="JAN"/>
<title></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.google.com">This is news item number one</a></p>]]></description>
</item>
<item>
<date day="23" month="JAN"/>
<title></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.msn.com">This is news item number two</a></p>]]></description>
</item>And the xsl I have so far to display this is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
- <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
- <xsl:template match="/">
<h1>News</h1>
- <table bgcolor="#FFFFFF" border="0" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0">
- <tr bgcolor="#9acd32">
<th align="left">Date</th>
<th align="left">Description</th>
</tr>
- <xsl:for-each select="NEWS/item">
- <tr>
- <td>
<xsl:value-of select="date/@month" />
<xsl:value-of select="date/@day" />
</td>
- <td>
<xsl:value-of select="description" />
</td>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>The problem i am having is formatting this so there is no link or paragraph tags where there shouldn't be. I am hoping to accomplish this with som XSL, but my knowledge is limited on what I would have to do.
I could rearrange my flash as well to take out the css, but that as well I am limited....
Any help would be appreciated. Many thanks.
