Re: AW: AW: AW: [xsl] xhtml output formating problems / passing through pre defined static xhtml

RE: [xsl] Setting values for variable | AW: AW: AW: AW: [xsl] xhtml output formating problems / passing through pre defined static xhtml
And this would not:

  <html> 
  <head> <head>
  <body> 
	  <div> 
		 <div> 
		

The first thing that happens to an xsl stylesheet is that it is parsed by
an XML parser that knows _nothing_ about xslt so clearly, yes, you can not
put the above fragment in _any_ XML element. In particular you can't put
it in xsl:variable If you do you get an _XML_ parse error and XSLT won't
even start.

XSLT never manipulates tags so it never makes sense to process a start
tag and not the end tag. Think in terms of a node tree not of the markup
used to express that tree in a linear document: you can't have half a
node.
