title: removing white space in XML tags
body: <p>I have an incoming XML which is having white space like:</p>
  
  <p><code>&lt; /ns1:pr&gt;</code> and <code>&lt; /soapenv:Envelope&gt;</code></p>
  
  <p>Because of this white space my XSLT fails to process. Is there any way we can omit those white space?</p>
  
  <p>Incoming XML:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"&gt;
   &lt;soapenv:Body&gt;
    &lt;ns1:pr xmlns:ns1="http://example.com"&gt;
     &lt;ns1:dis&gt;
      &lt;TP memberID="121897679001" FirstName="Tom" LastName="regen" auId="42424234"&gt;     
      &lt;/TP&gt;
     &lt;/ns1:dis&gt;
    &lt; /ns1:pr&gt;
   &lt;/soapenv:Body&gt;
  &lt; /soapenv:Envelope&gt;
  </code></pre>
