RE: Matching Text that may have white-space prefix and appen

I have a problem where l need to filter elements based on their element
content.

For example:

<root>
	<contact>
	<name>
Suk.
	</name>
	<phone>
12345
	</phone>
	</contact>
	<contact>
	<name>
Bassi.
	</name>
	<phone>
67890
	</phone>
	</contact>
</root>

if l tried:

<xsl:apply-templates select="//phone[(../name)='Suk.']"/>

l would get back zero results.

This is because the XSLT processor does not ignore the space between <name>
and Suk. and </name>.

Is this the fault of the processor, or is there another way of doing this?

Thanks.

Suk.
