Your stylesheet says
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
So the space has gone because you asked for it to be stripped.

Subject: RE: [xsl] how to reserve single space after transformation
Here is example for XML file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<blueprint xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";>
<apg>
<channel_object>
<element1>test1</element1>
<element2>test2</elemetn1>
</channel_object>
<category_system_object>
<category_label>
<string> </string>
</category_label>
</category_system_object>
</apg>
Here is my XSLT file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";>
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"
indent="no"/> <xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:template match="/ | node() | @* | comment() |
processing-instruction()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="channel_object">
<advanced_channel_object>
<xsl:apply-template />
</advanced_channel_object>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I strip out all white space in this transform since I will
call customized pretty-print XSLT later on the better print
(that is out of the scope of this problem).
Thanks,
Jessica

Subject: RE: [xsl] how to reserve single space after transformation
I am doing XML to XML transform by using saxon 8. But the result
changed from single space to empty space, could you please
help me for
this problem?
<category_label>
<string> </string>
</category_label>
to:
<category_label>
<string/>
</category_label>
I can think of many different stylesheets that would
transform a single space to a zero-length string, but the
chances are that none of them is the stylesheet you wrote.
Show us some code!
