  1. POLine breaks in XSLT formatted code documentation (xml)
    text
    copied!<p>Our WinForms based application takes documentation files that were generated by Visual Studio (Xml documentation), performs some XSLT transformation and displays the result in a WebBrowser control inside our form.</p> <p>Problem is, We cannot seem to get line breaks to be displayed, for example for tags in the xml documentation.</p> <p>For example:</p> <pre><code> &lt;member name="T:Genesys.AgentLoginData"&gt; &lt;summary&gt; This is some test summary &lt;br /&gt; New line here &lt;/summary&gt; &lt;/member&gt; </code></pre> <p>When used with the XSL transformation, the summary text will be truncated into a single line.</p> <p>For simplification, the transformation does this for selecting the summary text:</p> <pre><code>&lt;xsl:template match="member" &gt; &lt;xsl:value-of select="summary" disable-output-escaping="yes" /&gt; &lt;/xsl:template&gt; </code></pre> <p>How can we properly get new lines to be displayed in the WebBrowser control inside our application?</p> <p>EDIT: Adding the contents of"View Source" from the WebBrowser control. What i'm after is a new line after "This is a method", and so on. The browser simply displays that in a single line.</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt;&lt;html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"&gt;&lt;head&gt;&lt;title&gt;Action Help&lt;/title&gt;&lt;style type="text/css"&gt; p {text-indent:200px;} li {text-indent:180px;} h1 {color:navy;} h2 {color:blueviolet} h4 {color:navy;} &lt;/style&gt;&lt;/head&gt;&lt;body&gt;&lt;H2 xmlns=""&gt;AgentLogin&lt;/H2&gt;&lt;H1 xmlns=""&gt;&lt;/H1&gt;&lt;h3 xmlns=""&gt; This is a method And its parameter Check this out name&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/body&gt;&lt;/html&gt; </code></pre>
