These extensions are not recognized in Saxon-HE
Saxon provides a number of additional serialization parameters, and several additional
serialization methods:
these have names
in the Saxon namespace. These can be specified as attributes on the xsl:output
and xsl:result-document
elements (XSLT-only), in the Query prolog (XQuery only),
or as extra parameters on the
Query or Transform command line. They can also be specified in the query or transformation
API.
For example, to request an indentation depth of one column, specify
!{http://saxon.sf.net/}indent-spaces=1
on the command line.
In XQuery, Saxon allows both standard serialization options and Saxon-specific
serialization parameters to be specified by means of a saxon:output
option declaration in the
query prolog. For example:
declare namespace saxon="http://saxon.sf.net/";
declare option saxon:output "indent=yes";
declare option saxon:output "saxon:indent-spaces=3";
The standard serialization parameters described in The W3C Serialization specification are all available, namely:
byte-order-mark
cdata-section-elements
doctype-public
doctype-system
encoding
escape-uri-attributes
include-content-type
indent
media-type
method
normalization-form
omit-xml-declaration
standalone
undeclare-prefixes
use-character-maps (only useful in XSLT)
version
Saxon interprets a zero-length value for doctype-system
or doctype-public
as meaning "absent". This is equivalent to omitting the value, except that in some
interfaces it will override
a value previously set within the query or stylesheet.
The Saxon-supplied serialization parameters are described on the following pages.
