In the below XSLT program I loop over each value in a sequence and separate
the sequence values by a tab (hex 9) character. When I open the output file in
a hex editor I see 3 characters separating the sequence values: space (hex
20), tab (hex 9), and space (hex 20). Why am I getting those space characters?
How do I avoid getting them?  /Roger

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; version="2.0">

<xsl:output method="text" />

     <xsl:variable name="headers" select="('A', 'B')"/>
     <xsl:variable name="field-separator"
select="codepoints-to-string(9)"/>

<xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:for-each select="$headers"> <xsl:sequence select="." /> <xsl:sequence select="$field-separator"/> </xsl:for-each>


Doesn't
  <xsl:value-of select="$headers" separator="{$field-separator}"/>
suffice to get what you want?
