You can use:
<template match="text()"> to match the all text nodes then use the normalize space inside it.

I have the following xml:
<Company> <Title>Federal Civil Trial </Title> <Author>by John Doe </Author> <Body>Blah blah blah blah blah. </Body> </Company>
I need to remove the extra spaces that sometimes occur before the end-tags.
I've been messing around with the identity template, and can get that to copy my XML intact.
The following trims the spaces before the end-tags nicely.
<xsl:template match="Company/Title"> <xsl:copy><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space()"/></xsl:copy> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="Company/Author"> <xsl:copy><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space()"/></xsl:copy> </xsl:template>
But what I'm wondering is if there's a way to use the identity template to copy the whole tree, but still somehow use normalize- space to remove the spaces. This would enable me to not have to match each element of the tree individually (there are a lot of possible elements).
I can't quite get me head around this one. Any pointers in the right direction are appreciated.
BTW, I'm stuck having to use XSL 1.0 for this project.
