<xsl:value-of select = "."/> and when the XSLT processor first strips the white space from the stylesheet, this is turned into <xsl:value-of select = "@id"/><xsl:value-of select = "."/> It works with &space; because NO-BREAK SPACE is not considered white space. > Any ideas regarding what i should do ?? You could use <!ENTITY newline "<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>"> but make sure not to use it inside xsl:text, i.e. <xsl:value-of select = "@id"/><xsl:text>&newline;</xsl:text><xsl:value-of select = "."/> Santtu XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
