Senthil,
Or, two less general solutions, which would work on the sample input given:
#1
<xsl:stylesheet ...>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:copy-of select="/"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
#2 what George had, except
<xsl:template match="text()"/>
These are less general since they remove more than just the carriage
returns. #1 removes all whitespace-only nodes (by trimming them from
the input tree before copying it to output), while #2 removes all
text nodes whatsoever.
Cheers,
Wendell

Start with a recursive copy template then match the text nodes and
process the new lines, for instance replace them with spaces:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:template match="node() | @*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node() | @*"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text()">
<xsl:value-of select="translate(., ' ',' ')"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Hi
I want to flatten the XML node structure to single line,
I tried indent=no and it does not work for me.
Please any suggestions.
I use the following xslt
<?xml version="1.0" encoding='UTF-8'?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="no" />
<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
input
<node1>
</Item1>
</Item1>
</Item1>
</Item1>
</Item1>
</Item1>
</Item1>
</node1>
output
<node1></Item1></Item1></Item1>..</node1>

Senthil
