I am calling this template again and again in other
template using call-template.
The place where I use this, it gives me lots of spaces
and then the value is printed.

This template can't cause any space to be printed, the problem probably is where you call it, can you show us a typical invocation of this template ?



I tried using the strip-space also but it does not
work and it spoils my parent child calculations.
This is again a question why strip space messes my
parent child count etc?

May be because whitespace only text nodes you are stripping out are child nodes of their parents and you count they. It depends on how you count parent child nodes.
