RE: [xsl] Control over html output

Thanks. I'm away from my xsl environment today, but it looks as if either of
the two options below should do the trick :-)

well your'e doing it wrong then:-)

Remember that white space nodes are stripped from the stylesheet so you
can indent your code nicely. Since it's stripped it doesn't appear in
the output. But you have full control over what does appear in the output
by putting white space in nodes that are not stripped, either text nodes
that are not all white, or inside xsl:text or that have xml:space set to
preserve.

In particular

<xsl:text>&#10;</xsl:text>

will put a line break into the output.
