How to remove additional spacing?

[Ding Lei]

Hello folks,
I am using xml for a newsletter, along with a xsl file to
display it in a browser. In the xml file, a newline, tab or whitespace
character all causes exactly one spacing between two words. That's
generally OK for English or other european languages. But since I am
using Chinese, in our convention, there shall not be any spacing between
two Chinese words. but I definitely won't my xml file being
messed up with very very long sentances all on a single line. They shall
be formatted nicely(i'm using emacs's auto fill mode), and at the same
time won't cause spacing due to newline/tab.
Any solution possible?
Thank you.

You will need to remove these characters when processing the XML file,
assuming the processing is done in XSLT you can use one of the XSLT
replace templates, for example
