What's the probability of having two car accidents in one month? It must be high enough. Just a month after the first one some asshole hit me and run away. I wonder if it's a bad luck or actually a good luck? Sure, my own car is totaled and a company car doesn't look good either, but hey, I didn't get even a scratch, so I believe I'm a lucky guy.

Ok, back to work. I uploaded version 2.3 of the nxslt2.exe/NxsltTask tool. It's probably the last version for .NET 2.0. Anyway, here is what's new:

  • improved error reporting - I finally integrated Anton's contribution.
  • nxslt.exe options files (@file option) - useful when your command line gets too long.
  • XHTML output mode (-xhtml option) - this approach in action.
  • XSLT 2.0-like character maps (-cm option) - just like in XSLT 2.0, but in a proprietary namespace. I have to blog about this feature.
  • nxslt and NxsltTask are now debuggable - as it turned out when round-tripping assemblies with ildasm/ilasm there is still a solution to keep them debuggable.
  • resolving XInclude for XSLT stylesheets is now off by default - because usually nobody needs it and it breaks Docbooks stylesheets.
  • -xslxi option to turn XInclude for XSLT stylesheets on - if you still want it. 
  • fixed several bugs preventing running Docbook stylesheets - XslCompiledTransfrom + DTD in imported stylesheets and documents loaded via document() function + custom XmlReaders= nightmare.

    • Oh, just in case: nxslt2 is a free feature-rich .NET 2.0 XSLT command line utility and NAnt/MSBuild task which uses .NET 2.0 XSLT processor - XslCompiledTransform class and supports XML Base, XInclude, XPointer, EXSLT, embedded stylesheets, processing instruction, multioutput, custom URI resolving, custom extension functions, pretty printing, XHTML output, XSLT 2.0-like character maps and more.

    nxslt2.exe/NxsltTask are free tools under BSD license. Download here.

    Hi,
    Hope you remember me, i had long back posted a comment that if the WML file had some blank lines in between the paragraph, then when we convert it into html using the nxslt the lines in the html file is getting suppressed.Can you please suggest me some solution for the blank lines to appear after the translation
