Sorry I just changed intentionally. Just to show that you can write it
shorter: ;)
<xsp:element name="option"> by <option>
I know very well what you are feeling with:
"but this leads me to illegible xml after a while"
This is just a beginner affair. When I started to write Cocoon applications, I
tried to write "clean" XML like you suggest:
<xsp:element name="option">
<xsp:attribute name="value">
<esql:get-string column="template_id"/>
</xsp:attribute>
<esql:get-string column="name"/>
</xsp:element>
But I got the same problems like you! Then I started to write better this:
<xsp:element name="option">
<xsp:attribute name="value"><esql:get-string
column="template_id"/></xsp:attribute>
<esql:get-string column="name"/>
</xsp:element>
By the way, In cocoon bugzilla there is a requested feature about not needed
space chars. But I dont know when will be resolved or if it will be done at
all.
At the end I want to said: "I am a Cocoon Beginner too! Trying to write his
first app." ;)

Antonio Gallardo.
