Re: Stylesheet to remove comments and insignificant whitespace

What's the reason for the space here?

At 09:18 AM 2/28/2003, you wrote:
 <xsl:template match="text()">
  <xsl:if test="not(normalize-space(text()) = ' ')">
                                                 ^

LF-only whitespace will pass this test, since normalized it's = '' not = '
'.

normalize-space() doesn't remove all whitespace, just condenses all adjacent
whitespace to one space.
