Hi Brand, >I interested in preserving white space and not line spacing as in the following: > ><example> Here is some text with white space </example> > >An obvious recommendation is to use   > ><example>  Here is some text with white space  </example> > >A recommendation has also been to use <xsl:preseve-space elements = "*"/>. <xsl:preseve-space elements = "*"/> only applies to whitespace-only nodes. therefore, it shall not affect your <example> element above. >With MSXML3, I don't seem to get the results I am expecting. I don't get any >results at all. I'm expecting that the white space will be preserved in the >rendered document. Instead the white-space is removed (default behavior). The default behaviour, and i stand to be corrected on this, is to preserve leading and trailing whitespaces in a node also containing text. these spaces can be removed using the normalize-space() function. i ran a quick check on some xml with MSXML3 and the leading and trailing whitespaces are preserved. i hope this helps. if not, could you post some code?
