Yes I have.

I typically use <xsl:param name="newline">
</xsl:param>. But neither work.  

I understand the xsl and the app that uses these xslt files, C# using the 
XslTransform class, works fine.  I have even run them with 
CookTop(www.---.com) and get the expected results.

My question is that VS2005 seems to treat all output as if it were xml and 
disregards superflurious whitespace and is there some way to control this 
behaviour. 

Have you tried running that from within vs2005 using the XML - Show XSLT 
Output menu option or with msxsl.exe?  Do you get line breaks and how?
