- Reply-to: xsl-list at lists dot mulberrytech dot com
Ladies and Gents, I need some guidance . I searched the archives and found
some info but it was not sufficient. Basically I want to convert an xml file
to a fixed length data file. The following is a sample of what I am trying
to do
Position of data for output file:
field: child1 start 1 length 7
field: att1 start 12 length 5
field: child2 start 27 length 12
field: child3 start 39 length 15
field: att2 start 56 length 3
Input:
<parent att1="foo">
<child1>aChild</child1>
<child2>anotherChild</child2>
<child3 att2="bar">yetAnotherChild</child3>
</parent>
Output:
aChild foo anotherChildyetAnotherChild bar
I would really appreciate any help on this.
Thanks
