I have this xml:
================
<text>This is line 1.
This is <B>line 2</B>.
This is line 3.</text>
================
Does XSLT provide a way that I can transform it into this?:
================
<text>
This is line 1.
<BR/>
This is <B>line 2</B>.
<BR/>
This is line 3.
</text>
================
I'm piecing together an XML-based content management tool and it would be
most convenient for content editors to just hit enter when they want a line
break to occur, giving them a sort of cross-breed of plaintext and HTML.
Hopefully this could also be adapted to a scenario where each
linefeed-separated block of text is turned into <para>block of text</para>
or similar..
Ideas?
