I am using xslt to transform an xml file to html.
The .net xslt engine keeps serving me self-closing tags for empty tags.
Example:
<div class="test"></div>
becomes
<div class="test" />
The former is valid html, while the latter is illegal html and renders badly.
My question is :
How do I tell the xslt engine (XslCompiledTransform) to not use self-closing tags.
If it’s not possible, how can I tell my browser (IE6+ in this case) to interpret self-closing tags correctly.
If you are using XmlWriter as your ouput stream, use HTMLTextWriter instead. XMLWriter will reformat your HTML output back to XML.
