Does XMLTransformation node support conversion of XML to a non XML format such as fixed width?
I could successfully convert an XML message to another XML or HTML. But I wanted to check whether XMLTransformation node supports non-XML formats.
Thanks,
VK. |

Why shouldn't you be able to? XSLT can transform from fixed format into xml and vice versa....

The output of the XML Transformation Node is a BLOB. This was a deliberate design decision, allowing scenarios like this one. |

fjb_saper,
I just want to confirm that can you transform Cobol copybook to am XML using XSLT and XML Tansformation node. My understanding is that XSLT is used to tranform XML to any other format not from other format to an XML. |

My understanding is the same as yours. XSLT can output either XML or non-XML, but it can only take XML as its input. |
