Is it possible to strip only newlines from nodes containing mixed content in XSLT 1.0? I have a situation where incoming XML files occasionally have newlines in the middle of text that need to be stripped, but the text may also contain mixed content elements. For example: <p>test <tag>more text</tag> text (TXT) and more text after newline.</p> This should be output as: <p>test <tag>more text</tag> text (TXT) and more text after newline.</p> However, if I run the XML through an identity transform and use normalize-space on the text nodes, I get this: <p>test<tag>more text</tag>text (TXT) and more text after newline.</p> Note that the spaces around the nested <tag> element are gone. The newline needs to be stripped out, but the spaces around the nested element need to be retained. ============================ Douglas Rudder XML Architect Wolters Kluwer Health, Clinical Solutions 77 West Port Plaza, Suite 450 St. Louis, MO 63146 Phone: 314-216-2227 email: Doug.Rudder@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ============================
