Not a good news for me.

Well anyways David/Michael thanks for looking into this.


Best,

I believe it's true that the AltovaXML processor always strips whitespace
nodes (or calls the MSXML parser in a way that strips them) and I'm not
aware of any way of changing this.

What XML parser and XSLT processor are you using?


Just for curiosity Michael, is this related with XSLT processor or 
there is error in my code.

Thanks for help.

Pankaj

In my stylesheet, I am stripping all the spaces, new line character 
while using <xsl:strip-space elements="*"/> which works
perfectly as
desired.

But now I've come across the requirement where I need to preserve 
spaces between the tags in few specific elements generally the 
punctuations(see below example) I tried to use the 
<xsl:preserve-space> to sort out this issue but doesn't seems to be 
working and "xsl:strip-space" seems to overcoming the effect of 
"xsl:preserve-space" effects. Can we use both to get their
respective
effects or simply they cannot be used together?

Below is how they looks in my stylesheet:

Snippet
=======

<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xmlns:fn="http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions";>

<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>

<xsl:preserve-space elements="element1 element2"/>

<xsl:output encoding="UTF-8" indent="no" media-type="text/xml"
method="xml"/>

--------------

</xsl:stylesheet>


Example:

<element1><surname>Dajnoki</surname>, <givenname>K.</givenname>
(<year>2002</year>) <article-title>XXXXX YYYY</article-title>.
<journal-title>ZZZZZZ XXXX</journal-title> 
<first-page>43</first-page>&ndash;<last-page>46</last-page>.</
element1>

Note: Spaces between the tags with any punctuation appears
correctly
(like in <surname>Dajnoki</surname>,
<givenname>K.</givenname>)  but fails in case of a single space 
between tags > < (for instance in </journal-title> <first-page> and 
results into the </journal-title><first-page> )


Below is how I have defined template for "element1"

<xsl:template match="element1">
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

Any suggestion would be an immense help.


Best,
