Removing white space
I am creating a stylesheet to render text from an xml
file and
have a loop like:
<xsl:for-each select="t">
<xsl:apply-templates/>,
</xsl:for-each>
Now the source is:
<t>
bla
</t>
<t>
bla
</t>
<t>
whatever
</t>
And I want to avoid the newlines to be passed through
to the output.
The output must be:
bla,bla,whatever
and NOT
bla
,bla
,whatever
How - please?
white-space-collapse ?
Thanks

There are many factors that cause this is to happen. First of all I need
to see a bit of more of your XSL (not too big please)

There is a section on the website about this:

By default, newlines are *not* formatted as line breaks. Did
you actually try running FOP?
If you have to normalize whitespace during the transformation,
make yourself familiar with the normalize-space() function
