RE: [docbook-apps] Discard leading/trailing whitespace in <title> elements?

["David Cramer (Tech Pubs)" <dcramer at motive dot com>]

Actually, I lied. There were line breaks in my source before and after
the indexterm tags. But I have to admit, I'm confused: given the
following sample, I get an extra space after Test1, but not after Test2
(which is identical to Test1) or Test3...using XEP 2.8 (I know, I really
should upgrade) and heavily customized XSLs based on 1.60.1 (again, I
should upgrade).

	 <formalpara> 
		<title>Test1</title> 
		<para> 
		  <indexterm>
			 <primary>blah</primary>
		  </indexterm>
		  Foo 
		</para>
	 </formalpara> 
	 <formalpara> 
		<title>Test2</title> 
		<para> 
		  <indexterm>
			 <primary>blah</primary>
		  </indexterm>
		  Foo 
		</para>
	 </formalpara> 
	 <formalpara> 
		<title>Test3</title> 
		<para> Foo 
		</para>
	 </formalpara> 

In any case, I've updated our XMetaL customization's .ctm file so it
will stop pretty printing indexterms. That solves the problem.

Thanks,
David
