normalize-space() converts a run of newlines to a space.
Even if you kept a newline in the attribute value it would be reported
as a space by an XML parser when the result tree is used, so it may be
that using normalize-space is all you need.

Note also that

d-o-e is specified to have no effect on attribute values.

Otherwise it would probably be simpler to look to the definition of your
extension function
urldecoder:decode()
rather than try to correct teh output of that function with xslt1's
somewhat limited string handling.
