The XSLT standard includes "xml", "html", "text", and Qualified Names output methods for its configuration. However, the template provided by NetBeans (Ctrl-N, XML, XSL Stylesheet) creates a template for the 'html' output method only: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!-- Document : newstylesheet1.xsl Created on : April 28, 2010, 12:03 PM Author : ... Description: Purpose of transformation follows. --> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:output method="html"/> <!-- TODO customize transformation rules syntax recommendation http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt --> <xsl:template match="/"> <html> <head> <title>newstylesheet1.xsl</title> </head> <body> </body> </html> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> I recommend adding a step to the wizard to create three separate templates (xml, html and text)... either that or create a more generic template as was done by Eclipse: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="/"> <!-- TODO: Auto-generated template --> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Just FYI, Altova XMLSpy sets 'xml' as their default output: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/> </xsl:stylesheet> From (http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform): XSL Transformations (XSLT) Version 1.0 W3C Recommendation 16 November 1999 16.1 XML Output Method The xml output method outputs the result tree as a well-formed XML external general parsed entity. If the root node of the result tree has a single element node child and no text node children, then the entity should also be a well-formed XML document entity. 16.2 HTML Output Method The html output method outputs the result tree as HTML 16.3 Text Output Method The text output method outputs the result tree by outputting the string-value of every text node in the result tree in document order without any escaping.
