Normalize-Space for a template

Hello,
The following template create a URL.  One or more line returns occur in the
source as well unwanted spaces.  I'm trying to figure out how to use
"normalize-space" to strip these unwanted spaces.  Here is what I have
tried:

    <xsl:template name="makeUrl">
    <xsl:param name="Display"/>
    <xsl:param name="url"/>
    <xsl:param name="Query"/>
     <a>
         <xsl:attribute name="href">
            <xsl:value-of select="$url"/>&amp;
         <xsl:value-of select="$Query"/>
            </xsl:attribute>
         <xsl:value-of select="$Display"/>
     </a>

    <!-- NORMALIZE THIS STUFF -->
  <xsl:value-of select='normalize-space(.)'/>

    </xsl:template>


It doesn't work.  Any ideas?
Karl
