Hi,

After sending the mail, while trying several things, I tried that too 
and it worked. Thanks a lot for your help. So this must be the 
definitive answer to creating white spaces in XSL. But how come 
<xsl:entitiy-ref> is not mentioned in the revamped IE5 XSL elements 
reference page?

regards,
Alex
