I mean whitespaces in the input document. Due to wrong IE behaviour it
is not possible to reliably process document with mixed content when
invoking XSLT via <?xml-stylesheet...?>.

E.g.

<para>My name is <firstname>Jirka</firstname>
<surname>Kosek</surname></para>

Whitespace only text node between nodes for firstname and surname
elements will be automatically discarded by IE which leads to wrong
output where names will be merged like "My names is JirkaKosek".

No worries, I'm usually not very competitive. If it makes your happy,
you can assign my points to you ;-D
