Space After
Hi,
I am trying to use variables inside blocks as below
<fo:block >
<xsl:if test="$City!=''">
<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space($City)"/>
<xsl:if test="$State!=''">
, <xsl:value-of select="$State"/>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="$Zip!=''">
 <xsl:value-of select="normalize-space($Zip)"/>
<xsl:if test="$ZipExt!=''">
-<xsl:value-of select="$ZipExt"/>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:if>
</fo:block>
My expected output is City, State Zip-ZipExt
But i am getting City{space}, State Zip{Space}-ZipExt
Please let me know how to avoid the extra space after the variable.
Thanks
-AV

The XSLT processor strips whitespace-only nodes from the
stylesheet. Thie means any text nodes with any non-whitespace
character is left as is, including *all* whitespace. Even
whitespace at the end or beginning is *not* stripped. There
is *no* whitespace normalization for these nodes.
A non-breaking space is not a whitespace. THerefore you get
the linefeed after the xsl:if opening tags as well as the
spaces used for indentation into the output.
Either try to omit the whitespace you dont want:
<xsl:if test="$State!=''">, <xsl:value-of select="$State"/>
or enclose significant text in xsl:text:
<xsl:if test="$State!=''">
<xsl:text>, </xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="$State"/>
