What's the input?

What do you mean by "empty"?
What on earth has SAX got to do with it?

Subject: [xsl] Empty object
What is the best method for transforming empty objects that
will parse
sucessfully with SAX?
Example my current output contains
<tr><td>{blank , space...etc}</td></tr>
Thanks in advance.

Michael,
my mistake SAX has nothing to do with my problem...rather Xalan.
My input xml file contains empty elements that I need to carry the
corresponding attribute values for each of these empty elements.
Of course when my transform complete I am stuck with XHTML that contains
my favorite NONbreaking Space character.
Need to have my XHTML output to contain
<td style="bla" ..etc> {space currently is occupied by the NONbreaking
Space character}. Need to replace when the actual element is empty the
{NONbreaking Space character with a valid space holding character}
Attempting to include the string <xsl:text
disable-output-escaping="yes">&amp;nbsp;</xsl:text> without much
luck at the moment.
What is a best practice method for first determining if a element is
empty; then replace that NONbreaking Space character with a character
that will parse properly with Xalan?
Thanks in advance.
