[xsl] adding a newline to my output with XSL

Hi everyone, I'm a little new to XSL and need some help.  I'm using the
latest Xalan processor.  

I am trying to take an XML and create a pipe delimited file, or comma
delimited file.  My problem so far is that using the stylesheet below, all
newlines are eliminated, however, if I take out the '<xsl:strip-space
elements="*">' statement, then I get one value on each line.  What I would
like to do is put each "<Equity>" entry on a line with a '|' or a ',' as the
delimiter.

Thanks very much!
Pankaj

and the following XSL

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

   		<xsl:apply-templates />
    </xsl:template>

	<xsl:template match="/Equity" mode="listdetails">
		<xsl:value-of select="name()" />
		<xsl:value-of select="text()" /> 
		<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes"></xsl:text>
