OK so far you haven't shown your stylesheet - the suggestion for
character entities was to clearly indicate where the intended CR/LF
should appear, rather than using the invisible <press enter> method.

Perhaps http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2001/12/05/whitespace.html and other
google searches on white space in XSL might be more useful - note how
they squash the space within the XSL stylesheet to get the desired
output.

Although it might not look readable to you, the machine will have no
problem processing that even if all the xsl: instructions are squashed
together into a single line.
