Hi everybody,

First of all I have to say that I'm a newbie in XSL, so please apologize me if I submit basic questions. I think that my problem is very simple. I have quite complex data in a database and I want to export it in several formats. I want to generate an intermediate XML documet and apply to it different XSLT to transform to the specified format. Some of them are XML documents and other plain text with tab separated columns, my problem is related with the plain text formats. I have a XML document like this

<a>
   <b>
       <c att1="X" att2="Y">Z</c>
   </b>
</a>

And I want to generate a text file like this (tab separated columns)

=== BEGIN OF THE GENERATED DOC ===
X    Y    Z
=== END OF THE GENERATED DOC  ===

But the transformation writes all the tabs and newline characters of the XML document, so I obtain something like this

=== BEGIN OF THE GENERATED DOC ===

X Y Z

=== END OF THE GENERATED DOC ===

How can I avoid this?

Thanks in advance,

Luis
