Lineseparator in XML file to split long XSL to parts

[xnluser]

I would like to but XSL clauses to XML file and retrieve XSL clauses
with keys.
How can I separate XSL clause into different XSL rows? I mean something
like below.

This in XML

<add key="Key1" value="<xsl:value-of select="/VARIABLE/>"
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="ORDER_NUMBER == ''>

<value>Y</value>
</xsl:when>
<xsltherwise>
<value>N</value>
</xsltherwise> <!-- what to put here???
-->
</xsl:choose> "/>

Cheers

<add key="Key1" value="<xsl:value-of select="/VARIABLE/>"

^^^^
You would need to escape '<' as &lt;

Why would someone need to re-invent xsl:include???

I'm not re-invent xsl.
The question is:
How to put long XSL-command to XML to DIFFRENT rows?

In C you can write something like

#define something = "döaslkdasö" \
"djalkjddlasdj" \
"asdölasköla" \

NOT writing a long clause like:
#define something = "döaslkdasö djalkjddlasdj asdölasköla"

So, how to do that it XML file containing LONG XSL-clauses?

Anyone know this?

Neiter the XML specification nor the XSLT specification defines any rows.

Well whether you format your XSLT elements as e.g.
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
or put everything on one line is up to you, attributes of an element do
not all to be defined on the same line as the start tag of the element is.

But your original post tried to put XSLT instructions into an attribute
value of another XML documents, that's why Dimitre had the impression
your are trying to implement your own mechanism of what xsl:include offers.
