I need to remove the extra spaces that sometimes occur before the end-tags.

So, text()[not(following-sibling::node())] may match the last text
element. You could use normalize-spaces but that will also remove
leading spaces.

Better might be to use replace() (or exslt:replace if you are still
using XSLT 1.x) and replace ' +$' with ''

Hope this helps.
