nl2elements
Easily wrap each line with a custom element
Description
Wraps each line in a custom element.
Thanks to the nl2br Utility for inspiration!
Two params:
string The string to convert.
element-name (optional, default ‘li’) The element name
Example:
<ul>
<xsl:call-template name="nl2elements">
<xsl:with-param name="string">
Line 1
Line 2
</xsl:with-param>
<xsl:with-param name="element-name" select="'li'" />
</xsl:call-template>
</ul>
Output:
<ul>
<li>Line 1</li>
<li>Line 2</li>
</ul>
