Try
<xsl:strip-space elements="list-of-element-names"/>
The <xsl:strip-space> element is used to define the elements
for which
white space should be removed. * will do all i think
had some, tried *, still getting \r's.
Yes, that was a singularly irrelevant piece of advice.
The XSLT spec doesn't say what line ending the text output method should
use. It's up to the processor. Many are likely to use the default line
ending for the platform you are running on.
