Thanks, David for the clarifications.
My modified XSLT transform is following,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="2.0">
<xsl:output method="xhtml" doctype-system="
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"
doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>test</title>
</head>
<body>
<xsl:analyze-string select="unparsed-text('test.txt')"
regex="\r\n">
<xsl:matching-substring>
<br/>
</xsl:matching-substring>
<xsl:non-matching-substring>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:non-matching-substring>
</xsl:analyze-string>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Now I'm getting the result from transform, that I desired.
Its worth mentioning about the regex in the xsl:analyze-string above. I'm
now reading the input for xsl:analyze-string from a text file (the line
delimiter is \r\n on windows), and don't have to write \\ in the regex. And
that makes me understand your point, "that example is matching a newline
but you wanted to match the two characters \n".
