Unwanted Meta tag after xlst processing.

  • 아티클

I have an xslt that I use to generate a nice HTML representation of Visual Studio unit test result file (.trx), Last week, I discovered a problem, that the generated HTML includes an unwanted META tag. I did not have meta tag in the xslt, and it is bad because the meta tag does not have a closing tag, the generated html is a malformed xml. This makes post-processing little bit dificult.

It looks like this, notice how the META tag was not closed:

  <HEAD>    <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">     <TITLE></TITLE>  </HEAD>

After searching, I discovered the <xsl:output> element. Adding this element to the xslt, makes the html xml-compliant.

<xsl:output version="1.0" method="xml" encoding="UTF-8" omit-xml-declaration="yes">

After adding the xsl:output element to the xslt, the meta tag is gone.
