(dsssl) rtf from XML using DSSSL and Openjade newlines missing.

[Lars Bungum <Lars.Bungum@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings!

Although I'm still fumbling somewhat, I've been able to create a nice
rtf-document from an xml-file using a DSSSL style-sheet.  I've been able
to do all the formatting I would like, but still there is one last piece
missing that I can't grip.  That is, that inside one of my xml tags
(<answer>), lies several newlines and line-breaks.  They simply disappear
in my rtf-document, and I'm desperate to get them back. :)

What I have tried, is to locate some builtin function, but wasn't able to
find one.  Another thing that struck me was that I am perhaps using the
wrong newline character in some way.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I'll enclose my dsl-file:

<!doctype style-sheet PUBLIC "-//OpenJade//DTD DSSSL Style Sheet//EN">
