RE: [xsl] Insert space after the closing element

["Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In your match="legis-site" template, you are currently adding a newline
unconditionally using the xsl:text element. You can change this to output
the newline conditionally using something like

<xsl:if test="not(matches(following-sibling::text()[1],
"^[-,:;;]"))"><xsl:text>
</xsl:text></xsl:if>
