Reply To: Controlling White Space

Thanks for the response, David. Perhaps I posted this message to the wrong board. I really thought it was more of an authoring issue than a processing issue. While I agree that

Select the Closed check box.

and

Select the Closed check box.

are semantically the same, I would consider the latter contruction the better practice.

We use both the open toolkit that comes with XMetaL 5.1 EE and a standalone copy, version 1.4.1. I will need to confirm with my team, but I think that the white space issue affects ALL of our output, which includes XHTML on the local (XMetaL) and standalone version of the toolkit and PDF on the local version. I have implemented customizations on both, but nothing that involves the normalize-space function.

Best,
Severin
