Would you happen to have a typical example of that? Until now we haven't had problems with inter-word space being dropped, at least not that I know of. It would be useful to know as some of our developers are about to jump to use XML and XSLT in their web apps.

Extra whitespace between elements (and carriage returns) can introduce differences at the pixel render position level. That's why we prefer to use long one-liners without whitespace and CRs - ugly, but necessary. trouble is in the html world it can often result in inter-word space being dropped as msxml drops all white space text nodes not just those in element content.
