I am sorry. I am new to xsl (as you can propably
tell) so I am sorry if I am being a pain. I am not
sure how I can tell if the white spaces are still
around before I get to my fo block. All that I know
is that they are present in my xml file. And the only
time they are touched is in my detail template. How
can I tell if they are present before I get to my fo
block? I added the linefeed-treatment="preserve" and
it did not change anything. So I guess they are not
being preserved. What could be going on?
Thanks

more firmilar with xsl then please let me know.
The spec isn't too bad a read, or the faq for this
list at
www.dpawson.co.uk has some FO entries, and I think
DaveP's book text is
online there as well.
The section of the spec that I linked to in my last
reply does say
The "white-space-treatment" property specifies
the treatment
during the refinement process of character
flow objects, except
for linefeeds, that are classified as white
space in XML. This
includes U+0020 (space) and other white space
characters but
excludes U+000A (linefeed). Linefeed treatment
is determined by
the "linefeed-treatment" property.
so if it's linebreaks you are after you need to set
linefeed-treatment
as well.
But first you need to verify that your FO file has
the white space that
you expect. If the spaces have already gone by then,
setting properties
in the FO won't make them come back.
