Re: Removing XML:space from output

Straight from the XSLT 1.0 recommendation:

   http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#strip

   "The xml:space attributes are not stripped from the tree.

   NOTE: This implies that if an xml:space attribute is specified on a
   literal result element, it will be included in the result."

If that doesn't work for you, you might want to consider using
xsl:preserve-space, which is described in the same part of the
recommendation.  Or xsl:text, for that matter.

Hello,

When I use the xml:space attribute in my stylesheet, it carries over to
the resulting document.

For example:

           <td xml:space='preserve'><img src='example.gif' /></td>

And I get the following:

           <td xml:space='preserve'><img src='example.gif' /></td>

Is it possible to use xml:space so that it preserves the spacing, but
the attribute doesn't get carried over to the result?

Thanks,
Jason
