I guess my method for whitespace is not a very good one,
but it is quite simple:

**********<xsl:template match="foo">
*************begin@<xsl:value-of select="name"/><img src="cleardot.gif"
width="4" height="1"/>{<br/>
*************<img src="cleardot.gif" width="12" height="1"/><xsl:value-of
select="body"/><br/>
*************<img src="cleardot.gif" width="12" height="1"/>}
**********</xsl:template>

Please don't laugh :)
