RE: [xsl] preserveWhiteSpace=true; not working

Because you're viewing HTML in a browser.  HTML compresses all white space
to a single space when displayed.  If you want to preserve the spaces when
displayed, you need to change them to non-breaking spaces (  is the
easiest XML format).

Subject: [xsl] preserveWhiteSpace=true; not working


I am using MSXML3 running in replace mode on NT.
I'm doing a server side parse of XML and XSLT in VB as such(viewing in
IE5.5):

</snip>

My xml contains white space and line breaks like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Careers_List xml:space="preserve" >
	<joblisting>
		<id>1</id>
		<jobTitle>Java Developer</jobTitle>
		<Description>We are seeking 
		ng an experienced Java               Developer to take
charge of Interface  
		Development
		</Description>
	</joblisting>
</Careers_List>

The problem is my Description element text still outputs like this:
"We are seeking an experienced Java Developer to take charge of Interface
Development"

No white space or line breal preservation. Why is this happening?
