    How to print XML tree to html without transformation and removing attributes for debuging ?

    I have some error in XPath selection, and I want to debug it. So  I need to see XML.

    How can I print XML to HTML directly without transformation and removing attributes?

    Hi AlexR,

    A very simple trick is to use this piece of code in your xslt which will get the xml of the current node in a textarea field:

    <textarea><xsl-copy-of select="$currentPage" /></textarea>

    Or, you could try to debug your xslt, as per instructions on my blog

     

    Cheers,

    /Dirk

    Hi AlexR (and others interested),

    I created a package that'll let you view the XML colourcoded and stripped down for easier debugging. Does a couple of other tricks too (like getting nodes by @nodeTypeAlias or @id and getting a media item's XML from the @id).

    It's located here: http://our.umbraco.org/projects/xml-dump

    Let me know if you like it or hate it :-)
