Context
I am creating an XSL-FO document to convert my XML text to PDF.
In the XSL-FO, I have two consecutive inline elements, I would like a white space between them:
<fo:block>
<xsl:number/> <xsl:value-of select="@title"/>
</fo:block>
The expected result would be:
1 Introduction
Instead, I get
1Introduction
It seem XML do not consider this white space.
Attempts
I have tried several possible solutions, without success:
<fo:block>
<xsl:number/><fo:inline white-space="pre"> </fo:inline><xsl:value-of select="@title"/>
</fo:block>
or
<fo:block>
<xsl:number/><fo:inline margin-left="0.5cm"><xsl:value-of select="@title"/></fo:inline>
</fo:block>
None of those ideas produce an acceptable result.
The question:
How to include a white space between two (inline) elements?
Try:
<fo:block>
<xsl:number/>
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="@title"/>
</fo:block>
Or:
<fo:block>
<xsl:number/>
<xsl:value-of select="concat(' ', @title)"/>
</fo:block>
