My > <xsl:output> method is "html". I suspect you may also be seeing <br /> and the like in your output. I don't have experience with Xalan-C, only the Java version, but you may need to explicitly set <xsl:output method="html" version="4.0"/>, or even use -HTML when invoking the processor to write transitional 4.0 HTML, to prevent it from minimizing empty elements (I have no idea if you're using a presentation service or a command-line operation to do the transform). cheers, b. | brian martinez brian.martinez@xxxxxxxx | | senior gui programmer 303.708.7248 | | trip network, inc. fax 303.790.9350 | | 6436 s. racine cir. englewood, co 80111 | | http://www.cheaptickets.com/ http://www.trip.com/ | XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
