forgive my novice ineptitude.

I am working on a project where we would like to preserve line breaks that are entered into our XML database.

In the root of your XML documents add xml:space="preserve". That should force the XML parser to keep whitespace.

We are doing our XSL transformations with version 1. If I use my XSLT to output/display this data into a <textarea> element, the line breaks found in the database are there when displayed. If I output to a simple <p> element, the line breaks are gone.

Use a <pre> instead of a <p>. You got me all confused now :-P
