You can (partially) control the behavior of whitespace in XSLT using the xsl:preserve-space and xsl:strip-space elements, but that's the tip of the iceberg.

There was a good series of articles on XML.com:

http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2001/11/07/whitespace.html
http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2001/12/05/whitespace.html
http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2002/01/02/whitespace.html

You can also write your own serializer in Java if you need still more control.
