Regarding Q1
Use <p> or <br/> if your output is html or set <xsl:output method="text"/>
and place returns in your XLST if you want text output
Regarding Q2, you can use text() to test if there is a text
node.
<xsl:template match="organisations/orgRecord/state">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="text()">
state has value of <xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
state tag is empty
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
Regards,
Dan
