Mark,

The translate() function can be used to strip whitespace.

For example, translate('Hello World!', ' ', '') returns "HelloWorld!". Use translate($string, ' 
&#9', '') if you want to strip spaces, line feeds and tabs.

You should also look at normalize-space, which trims whitespace, although it won't be useful to you here.

Cheers,
Wendell

Hi,

Is there any easy xslt function for removing white space in an element other
than strip-space.  I have an element which contains urls, some of which have
white space in the middle of the url.  Strip-space won't help with this.

Thanks,

Mark Williams
