Hello All,

When I apply the below template to my xml I get &#xA; in place of white
space.  How do can I remove the &#xA;?  I thought <xsl:strip-space> would
romove the hard spaces in the xml.


###########Template Used##########

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
 

<xsl:template match="/ | node() | @* | comment() |
processing-instruction()">
  <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>
  </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
   
</xsl:stylesheet>
