Hi Mark,

To take tight control of the whitespace produced by your transformation...
1. Make sure your output method is HTML and turn indentation off, e.g.
      <xsl:output method="html" indent="no"/>

2. Ensure that all implicit output text is made explicit - implicit output
text being text that is not wrapped within <xsl:text>, e.g.
    convert things like...
      <p>Something</p>
    to...
      <p>
        <xsl:text>Something</xsl:text>
      </p>

Also, don't use <xsl:attribute> when an AVT (attribute value template) would
suffice, e.g. rather than...
        <td>
           <a>
             <xsl:attribute name="href">
                <xsl:value-of select="$VirPath" />default.aspx
             </xsl:attribute>
             <img name="ImageName" src="Image.gif></img>
           </a>
        </td>
      use instead...
          <td>
            <a href="{$VirPath}default.aspx">
              <img name="ImageName" src="Image.gif"/>
            </a>
          </td>
