RE: [xsl] How to put space between two characters?

[puja thakral <puja_thakral@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for your response.Your approach works fine if I
add the table border and cell spacing between
images.But it doesn't works fine if I want to
initialise the table before a word.
Here is the code which will make it more clear,it
works fine and creates the space between the two
images.But the images are shifted in another
line,although I want them to stay in the previous
line.

<xsl:for-each
select="//GrantNet[generate-id(.)=generate-id(key('data',NameOfForm))]">

<xsl:sort select="NameOfForm" order="ascending"/><br/>

<B><strong><font color="#000080"><big><big>
<a name="{generate-id(NameOfForm)}">


<xsl:value-of select="NameOfForm"/>
</a></big></big></font></strong></B>


<xsl:for-each
select="key('data',NameOfForm)"><xsl:text> </xsl:text>
    <xsl:text>  </xsl:text>
<table border="0" WIDTH='200'>

<td width='200'>

<a href="{From_ORSP_Server}"><img alt="DiskBlue.gif"
border="0" height="25" src="DiskBlue.gif"
width="25"/></a><xsl:text>  </xsl:text><xsl:text> 
</xsl:text> <xsl:text>  </xsl:text>  
</td>
<td>

<a href="{From_Granting_Agency}"><img
alt="DiskRed.gif" border="0" height="25"
src="DiskRed.gif" width="25"/></a><br/>
</td>

</table>
<br/><big>Description:</big> <xsl:value-of
select="Description"/><br/><br/><hr/>



</xsl:for-each>


So I added the Table Border and cell spacing before
the NameOfForm,so that I can adjust the table
parameters properly.

<xsl:for-each
select="//GrantNet[generate-id(.)=generate-id(key('data',NameOfForm))]">

<xsl:sort select="NameOfForm" order="ascending"/><br/>

<B><strong><font color="#000080"><big><big>
<a name="{generate-id(NameOfForm)}">

<table border="0" WIDTH='200'>

<xsl:value-of select="NameOfForm"/>
</a></big></big></font></strong></B>


<xsl:for-each
select="key('data',NameOfForm)"><xsl:text> </xsl:text>
    <xsl:text>  </xsl:text>

<td width='200'>

<a href="{From_ORSP_Server}"><img alt="DiskBlue.gif"
border="0" height="25" src="DiskBlue.gif"
width="25"/></a><xsl:text>  </xsl:text><xsl:text> 
</xsl:text> <xsl:text>  </xsl:text>  
</td>
<td>

<a href="{From_Granting_Agency}"><img
alt="DiskRed.gif" border="0" height="25"
src="DiskRed.gif" width="25"/></a><br/>
</td>

</table>
<br/><big>Description:</big> <xsl:value-of
select="Description"/><br/><br/><hr/>



</xsl:for-each>

But it gives an error and says that 'The stylesheet
does not contain a document element. The stylesheet
may be empty, or it may not be a well-formed XML
document'.

Please let me know what is there that I'm doing wrong.
Thanks a million.
Regards,
Puja
