Michael, You don't say what processor or even what process you are using for the transform. But assume that any tabs, spaces, line feeds etc are persevered on transform. It may be simpler to control the non-text characters in the code and not rely on pre-existing formatting caharacters. So <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="text" indent="no" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/> <xsl:param name="Name"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:text>Hello </xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="$Name"/> <xsl:text>, </xsl:text> <xsl:text> We have received your e-mail, and your question is in the process of being routed to the appropriate department.

VS.NET 2005 adds automatic indentation to XSLT files... and this indentation is causing problems with formatting. I could manually fix the file, but this would only be a workaround which could break easily... so I'm wondering how you get XSLT to strip indentation. I have an XSLT file that looks like: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="text" indent="no" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/> <xsl:param name="Name"/> <xsl:template match="/"> Hello <xsl:value-of select="$Name" />, We have received your e-mail, and your question is in the process of being routed to the appropriate department.

Sincerely, MySite.com Basically I want .NET's XSLT engine to ignore the indentation in the XSLT file and treat each line as a flush new line?
