I need to write a template matching text nodes, which just consit of
multiple whitespaces (tabs in most cases).
I cant't use normalize-space since I need leading and tailing
whitespaces in some cases.
I suppose matches() would help me here, but I actually don't
know how to
formulate the regular expression for that.
Perhaps I've misunderstood, but...
If you want to match a text node that consists entirely of whitespace you
can use
xsl:template match="text()[normalize-space()='']"
The value of "." inside the template rule will still be the original text
node; testing its value using normalize-space does not modify the contents
of the node.
