-----Original Message----- From: Tiffany Blake i also tried to store all 3 fields in a variable, but i can't get the variable to display - any ideas are appreciated <xsl:variable name="revBody"><b><xsl:value-of select="location"/> -- <xsl:value-of select="publish_date"/> -- </b><xsl:apply-templates select="/gapinc/body_text"/></xsl:variable> You can reduce the unwieldy appearance of content like this by using <xsl:text> <xsl:variable name="revBody"><b><xsl:value-of select="location"/> -- <xsl:value-of select="publish_date"/> -- </b><xsl:apply-templates select="/gapinc/body_text"/></xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="revBody"> <b><xsl:value-of select="location"/> <xsl:text> --</xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="publish_date"/> <xsl:text> --</xsl:text> </b> <xsl:apply-templates select="/gapinc/body_text"/> </xsl:variable> Bit more readable. Now all the whitespace nodes are contained in the xsl:text element, and unwanted white space from the stylesheet doesn't appear in the output. Quite important when using text output.
