Output Method Declarations
After an XSLT transformation produces a result tree, the <xsl:output>
element is used by the processor to determine how to serialize the result tree. The value of its method
attribute can be xml
, html
, or text
. The <xsl:output>
element is usually placed after the <xsl:stylesheet>
element. If the output is not serialized, but is instead made available as a tree (for example, in the DOM API), this element is ignored. This element must be a child of the <xsl:stylesheet>
element.
The following are output method declarations.
<xsl:output method="xml"/> <xsl:output method="html"/> <xsl:output method="text"/>
