Hi,

I have this in my xslt

<div id="newscontentArea">
              <div id="newscontentHeader"><xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:ReplaceLineBreaks(contentHeader)" /></div>
              <div id="newscontentDate"><xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:ShortDate(@createDate, true(), ' - ')" /></div>
              <div id="articlecontent"><xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:TruncateString(umbraco.library:ReplaceLineBreaks(article),72,'')" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
                  <xsl:if test="string-length(umbraco.library:ReplaceLineBreaks(article) &gt; 72)">  <!-- only show the link if truncated? -->
                       <a href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">  >> </a>  
                  </xsl:if>
              </div>
          </div>

Hi vaibhav

Maybe the 'article' contains some line breaks. Could you try outputting the entire content of article in a textarea like this:
```
<textarea>
   <xsl:copy-of select="article" />
</textarea>
```

Hi Vaibhav

Is this online somewhere so we can see the generated output?

Hi vaibhav

Did you ever find a solution to this issue? If you did, could you post it in here so we can see what caused the "error".

Have you tried the textarea-trick that I mentioned in my first answer?
