~I am having an XSL problem. I am losing the carriage returns from the
~xml file. I know that there must be a way that I can replace the
~with a <br /> or < br /> for the whole file not just one node. In
~other words I have multiple nodes in the xml that have
~carriage returns.
I am not sure that you can match 
 using XPath.
I know you can use <xsl:text> to add carriage returns but you would need to
match a node for that.
You might want to look into the whitespace documentation on w3.org to see if
there is something else you can do.
You might also look at <xsl:preserve-space>. I know this will preserve the
amount of whitespace in an XML doc like this:
<text> some text </text>
output:
some text
But I don't know if this would help with HTML output.
Everything I have read when refering to carriage returns talks about using
<xsl:text> so that might be your best bet for finding a solution.
