 Quick question if any of you have experience of using Sabloton on Apache / PHP platform : I have xml file formatted for readbility as below, and in my stylesheet I'm using <xsl:strip-space elements="iCalendar vcalendar vevent" /> to remove the dead space. Problem : I'm trying to output as a flat text file using Sablotron, and unfortunately I get 3 line breaks at the top of the output, which correspond to those in the top level elements in the source XML file. I need to remove line breaks on output - any suggestions ? Is this a known limitation with Sablotron or have I overlooked some output encoding magic which will work ? Source XML : <iCalendar> <vcalendar version="2.0" prodid="-//hacksw/handcal//NONSGML 1.0//EN"> <vevent id="1"> <uid>19970901T130000Z-123401@xxxxxxxx</uid> <dtstamp>19970901T130000Z</dtstamp> <dtstart>19970903T163000Z</dtstart> <dtend>19970903T190000Z</dtend> <location>Location</location> <summary>Annual Employee Review</summary> <description> </vevent> . . (more vevents) . . </vcalendar> </iCalendar> Stylesheet example code : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:strip-space elements="iCalendar vcalendar vevent" /> <xsl:preserve-space elements="description"/> <xsl:param name="current" select="0" /> <xsl:template match="vevent"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="@id=$current"> <xsl:text>BEGIN:VCALENDAR
</xsl:text> <xsl:text>BEGIN:VEVENT
</xsl:text> <xsl:apply-templates select="dtstart"/> <xsl:apply-templates select="dtend"/> <xsl:apply-templates select="uid"/> <xsl:apply-templates select="summary"/> <xsl:apply-templates select="description"/> <xsl:apply-templates select="location"/> <xsl:text>END:VEVENT
</xsl:text> <xsl:text>END:VCALENDAR
</xsl:text> </xsl:when> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> ... templates ... </xsl:stylesheet> <xsl:output method="text" indent="no" /> Cheers, Neil Smith. XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
