  Awww crap.  Hopefully, this will be my last response to the original 
query...  I had forgotten that I edited your XML sample to remove all of 
the hard returns ('\n') from the <p> elements.  You might want to set up an 
initial conversion before calling the "linkify" template (see other post) 
that translates newlines to spaces and then normalize-space() on the text() 
node.  At that point, the rest of the posted code will work fine.

Bye.
