HTML requires that " ", " ", " " and the literal bytes in some encoding for a non-breaking space character all be treated exactly the same by HTML user agents. The XSLT spec does not require an XSLT processor to serialize the transformation result as HTML at all, and it is pretty lenient about imposing requirements on HTML output if the processor chooses to do so. It is arguable that the spec should not have to require an XSLT processor to serialize HTML in such a way as to be compatible with HTML user agents that fail to properly implement the simplest SGML/HTML constructs. - Mike ____________________________________________________________________________ mike j. brown, fourthought.com | xml/xslt: http://skew.org/xml/ denver/boulder, colorado, usa | personal: http://hyperreal.org/~mike/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
