It's normaly a bad idea to preseve space in the stylesheet. If you
do....


<a>
         <xsl:attribute name="href">
         

You can't add an attribute after you have added any text to teh element
body.
Normally that newline and space after the <a> would have been stripped
and so <xsl:attribute would work but if you preserve that space then it
is added as a text node to the output, so you can't add an attribute.
