Interestingly, I was not able to repro this with MSXML (and hence IE).
I was able to repro this with System.Xml though. I used the following
stylesheet:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>TEST</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY><H1><xsl:value-of
select="normalize-space(/p)"/></H1></BODY>
</HTML>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Does anyone have the stylesheet he used to repro this behavior?
Thanks!
Dion

Subject: Fwd: white space in MSIE
Hi folks,
On another list, the question below appeared regarding the way the
processor handles whitespace.
Can someone confirm that what is being described stems from a bug in
MSXML?
I'm recalling something about it but I'm not sure of the details....
Thanks--!
Wendell
