Does it help if you put xml:space="preseve" on your stylesheet e.g

Code:

<xsl:stylesheet
  xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
  version="1.0"
  xml:space="preserve">

?

putting xml:space="preserve" actually has the effect producing no output what so ever.

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xml:space="preserve">
  <xsl:output method="html" indent="yes" />
  <xsl:template match="/">

Sorry, you have lost me, are you saying that the stylesheet produced a HTML document before but now with xml:space="preserve" you get no output at all?
That is rather strange, do you get any error messages at least that and why the transformation failed?

yes, that's correct. with xml:space="preserve" included within my xsl:stylesheet tag, it produces no HTML at all and does not provide any error message.

"strange" is beginning to describe all my XSLT issues.

This documentation http://dev.ektron.com/kb_article.aspx?id=9240 suggests that XslCompiledTransform is used as the XSLT processor. I don't understand why it should fail to work with xml:space="preserve" applied on the stylesheet. And it does not when I use it with some C#/.NET 2.0 code.
