RE: how to concatenate fields?

so if i remove the extra line breaks and add the hypens, the revision would 
look something like:

<xsl:if test="string-length(location)&gt;0">
        <p><b><xsl:value-of select="location"/></b>" - "
        <xsl:value-of select="publish_date"/>" - "</p>
</xsl:if>

<xsl:if test="string-length(/gapinc/body_text)&gt;0">
        <xsl:apply-templates select="/gapinc/body_text"/>
</xsl:if>

does this look correct?

i'm a newbie to xml/xslt - i need to revise my output to combine
multiple fields into one and at the same time insert extra characters.
how do i change the following code to do this?


Well, you've got a clue in your text already, because you're inserting
extra characters with the <b> and </b>, correct?

If you remove the </br> (which should be <br/> in order to be
well-formed), that will put them on the same line.

how do i force "location", "publish_date" and "body_text" on the same
line AND insert a hyphen "-" between each field?
