 You need to test to determine if the preceding-sibling element of a <term> is also a <term>, if so, put a space before the output like this:
<xsl:template name="term" match="term">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="preceding-sibling::*[name()='term']">
<a href="glossary.cfm?ID={@id}"> <xsl:value-of select="text()"/></a>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<a href="glossary.cfm?ID={@id}"><xsl:value-of select="text()"/></a>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

Subject: Loss of whitespace with back to back nested tags
Greetings,
I've got a bunch of nested <term> tags within text of particular elements,
that could be linked to a glossary page. When I have back to back terms,
such as:
<content>
test1 <term>test2</term> <term>test3</term> test4
</content>
The output comes as test1 test2test3 test4. I'm sure its something simple,
but cannot find the correct method.
As always, tia.
Here's the code:
