Re: [xsl] Removing all line breaks in text nodes

Thanks for the tips, David.

I tried the following template, but the transformed document retains
the line breaks FrameMaker inserted in the original file.

        <xsl:template match="text()">
                <xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(.)"/>
                <xsl:value-of select="translate(., '&#xA;&#xD;', '  ')" />
        </xsl:template>

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Thanks,
Mark
