According to my XSLT book, XSLT has lots of ways to control the generation
of white-space nodes - elements like space, preserve-space, and strip-space
elements - in contrast to HTML where the spec is not very precise, and so
different browsers handle whitespace differently. 

After playing with these elements, I still don't understand how they work,
but they're SUPPOSED to be useful  in stylesheets ...
