Re: [xsl] I output a tab character, then the output file contains space, tab, space ... why?

The XSLT rules for constructing complex content say that if you output two
adjacent strings, a space character will be inserted between them. There are
many ways to avoid this, but Martin Honnen's suggestion seems the simplest.

Hi Folks,
In the below XSLT program I loop over each value in a sequence and separate
the sequence values by a tab (hex 9) character. When I open the output file
in a hex editor I see 3 characters separating the sequence values: space (hex
20), tab (hex 9), and space (hex 20). Why am I getting those space
characters? How do I avoid getting them? /Roger
