 <artist> <name>Commandos</name> <photo>commandos.jpg</photo> <song_title>Everybody's Way</song_title> <hash>dbs8ud9bq3ddffdf</hash> <bio>blah blah blah</bio> <buy_link>commandos.htm</buy_link> <sponser_name>Some Company</sponser_name> <sponser_url>http://www.some-company.com/</sponser_url> <date>2003-07-03</date> </artist> ...and I need to turn these into text file of tab separated values, each artist element must have a line break after it. Basically I'm turning it into a .sql file. I'm having strange strange troubles though. I've done lots of transformations, but never into method='text' before, so I've never dealt with whitespace. I've plowed through some articles at xml.com on whitespace, but nothing's working right. The examples work, but when I alter them to fit what I need, it leaves out the tab. I think the problem's in this, but I don't understand why the tabs & newline are being stripped, when they weren't stripped when I tried the example files - <xsl:template match="artists"> <xsl:apply-templates select="name"/> <xsl:text>	</xsl:text> <xsl:apply-templates select="photo"/> <xsl:text>	</xsl:text> <xsl:apply-templates select="song_title"/> <xsl:text>	</xsl:text> <xsl:apply-templates select="date"/><xsl:text> </xsl:text> </xsl:template> ...I tried changing the xsl:apply-templates to xsl:value-of, and it didn't change the output. I'm really confused. Dev _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses.
