Hi Martin,


        Thanks for the response. I used  <xsl:if test="string-
length(normalize-space(text()[1])) &gt; 0"> to check if the current
node has text and the text length is > 0.  I initially thought of
using the text() function but I realized that the text() function
alone but I realized that the text() function includes the text of
child elements as well which is not what I wanted. I only want to
examine if the current node has text and print the text between html
<pre> tags. I'll try your suggestions and see if that works.


Thanks,

Koshin
