I believe something like this will work
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:variable name="cr"><xsl:text>
</xsl:text></xsl:variable>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text()">
<xsl:value-of select="translate(., $cr, '')"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Hi,
Is there any way to remove line breaks without deleting the whitespace
in-between elements? For example, suppose you started with the
following XML:
<paragraph>
<sentence>Some words are <i>italicized</i> and some words are in
<b>bold</b>.</sentence>
<sentence>Some words are <u>underlined</u>.</sentence>
</paragraph>
I'd like to remove the line breaks, but otherwise retain any existing
whitespace between elements, resulting in the following XML:
<paragraph><sentence>Some words are <i>italicized</i> and some words
are in <b>bold</b>.</sentence><sentence>Some words are
<u>underlined</u>.</sentence></paragraph>
I'm trying to avoid sentences whose contents run together when I
process the text.
Thanks!
Mark
