There have been a lot of discussion about this in lists like xml-perl and the newsgroup comp.text.xml. The solutions are: - type '<nmlist nametype="entity">entity5</nmlist>' - "trim" the spaces and end-of-lines when they appear at the beginning or ending of a PCDATA node. I know how to do it in Perl (that's what I use) but not in DSSSL, sorry. DSSSList info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/dsssl/dssslist
