xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" not working as expected.

Probably working as designed.

Copied stuff is undoubtedly including whitespace from the source document rather
than being indented by Xalan.

Xalan-generated indentation defaults to line-break only. To actually indent, you
need to specify how much indentation should occur per level, by adding the
attribute xalan:indent-amount="5" (or however much) to your <xsl:output> directive.

(Yes, there have been extensive arguments about whether 0 is the best default.
No, I don't think it is. We can bring it up on the mailing list again and see if
anyone has changed their minds...)

This really should be added to our FAQ page!
