> But what is the purpose of empty <xsl:text /> instructions? An empty <xsl:text/> instruction splits a text node into two, typically making one of them a whitespace-only node that will be stripped from the stylesheet. Useful e.g. in <xsl:attribute> <xsl:text/>[<xsl:value-of select="$x"/>]<xsl:text/> </xsl:attribute> to prevent newlines in the output. You can't put an <xsl:text> element around the <xsl:value-of>, it's not allowed to contain child elements, and the alternative of <xsl:text>[</xsl:text><xsl:value-of select="$x"/><xsl:text>]</xsl:text> is even uglier.
