Whitespace is a tricky thing to get right. It's impossible to give you a good answer without knowing more about what you are trying to do and why, and the context, and without seeing your XSLT. In some contexts, . eq ' ' would work, for example, and in others you might want data(.) eq ' ' (both assuming XSLT 2) or even something like, matches(., '^\s+$') Liam Liam Quin - XML Activity Lead, W3C, http://www.w3.org/People/Quin/ Pictures from old books: http://fromoldbooks.org/ XML Blog: http://www.barefootliam.org/
