Question on XSLFO..!

["Baig Muzeer [contractor]" <Mu...@EBay.Sun.COM>]

Hi there:


I have a question on XSLFO...!

I am not able to access variable value, while using FOP. Same thing when I used 
for XSLT (Xalan) it worked. But now I trying to use the same, I am not able to 
get the variable value.

some time it give error as :
     
     illegal character
     
     or
     
     
     WARNING: Unknown formatting object ^br
     
     
Code :


<fo:block-container border-color="black" border-style="solid" 
border-width="0.5pt"  height="3cm" width="0.625cm" top="9.5cm" left="6cm" 
position="absolute">
            <fo:block text-align="centered" space-after.optimum="3pt" 
line-height="18pt" font-weight="normal" font-size="10pt" 
font-family="Helvetica">
            
            <xsl:choose>
            <xsl:when test="//SystemBoard[@slotNumber='1']" >
            <xsl:variable name="strManipulate" select="/SystemBoard/@partNum" />
            <xsl:value-of select="substring($strManipulate,1,1)" /><br/>
            <xsl:value-of select="substring($strManipulate,2,1)" /><br/>
            <xsl:value-of select="substring($strManipulate,3,1)" /><br/>
            <xsl:value-of select="substring($strManipulate,4,1)" /><br/>
            <xsl:value-of select="substring($strManipulate,5,1)" /><br/>
            </xsl:when>
            <xsl:otherwise>
            <xsl:text>&#160;</xsl:text>
            </xsl:otherwise>
            </xsl:choose>

            
            </fo:block> 
         </fo:block-container>


Here I am not able to retieve value of variable "strManipulate".

Can u please let me know if I am doing wrong anywhere or is there any alternate 
solution.


Thank's

For what I'm seeing... you are using <br/> ... you should use <fo:block/>.
Well, at least that's what I use to create a "br" :)
