New line , white spaces and colors .

Hello .

I work with IE5 .I have a little (hopefully) problem .

Here is my XML file :

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<?xml:stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="" ?>
<Screen >
<Field colr="0"> First Field should be displayed with offset 20 .</Field>
<Field colr="1"> Second field should be shown on the same line </Field>
</Screen>

I need :

1.To display all Fields on the same line .

2. To preserve white spaces ( I use <PRE> element for this purpose ) .

3.To get the value of the Field's "colr" attribute and according to this attribute to set the color of the displayed text .

My XSL does 2 and 3 successfully , but failed with 1- it starts the second Field from the new line .Why ?

If I delete the <font> section from the Field template , it works correctly ,but without color processing .

If I don't use <PRE> element , it displays the two fields on the same line and with correct color , but strips the white spaces .(I tried a lot of another variants for preserving white spaces , but it was solved only by using <PRE> element ) .

Below you can see my XSL file :

Fields.xsl :

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl">
<xsl:template match="/">
<HTML xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl">
<BODY STYLE="background-color:silver" >
<xsl:apply-templates />
</BODY>
</HTML>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="Screen">
<PRE><xsl:apply-templates /></PRE>

</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="Field">
    <font>
       <xsl:apply-templates select="@colr"/>
    </font>
    <xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="text()"><xsl:value-of /></xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="@colr">
<xsl:attribute name="STYLE">color:
   <xsl:choose>
        <xsl:when test=".[.='J']">blue</xsl:when >
        <xsl:otherwise >black</xsl:otherwise >
   </xsl:choose>
   </xsl:attribute>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Thanks in advance for any ideas , examples and comments .
