Thanks

Those are carriage return/line feed characters.

Why are they in my output? They are right in the middle of lines....not where they would normally be found. And they're not in the source.

Can you give an example of the surrounding xslt? I've seen someone using this to get rid of it: Code:
<xsl:value-of select="translate(ContentArea, '

	', '')" disable-output-escaping="yes" />

hmm... there should be some 

	 instead of the linebreaks in the code :-)

yes, that is the weird part, I don't have them in the source code. It seems to be only where I use a cdata. This code: Code: <a> <xsl:attribute name="id"> <xsl:value-of select="concat($sMenuName,'link')"/> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="class"> <![CDATA[main]]> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="href"> <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:NiceUrl(./data[@alias='menuInternalURL'])"/> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/> </a> Outputs: Code:<a id="eventslink" class="
 main
 " href="events.aspx">EVENTS</a> The value in cdata (<![CDATA[main]]>) is not cut-n-paste from elsewhere so I know there are no stray characters. This is just a small example, it seems anywhere I have a cdata, I get the 
 characters. There is no disable-output-escaping on a cdata . Thanks

That output should look like this: <a id="eventslink" class="
 main
 " href="events.aspx">EVENTS</a> also, I know there shouldn't be an extra space between the ]] on a cdata but the forum editor won't let me submit with a properly formed cdata....even within the code block.

I think this is the answer you are looking for... http://neehouse.com/code/xslt/cdata_string_output.aspx

I re-read that and see that was not the answer. In your XSLT, remove the carriage returns from the class attribute, and see if those characters disappear. Code:<xsl:attribute name="class"><![CDATA[main] ]></xsl:attribute>

Well, it is annoying that xslt sometimes includes the CRLF and sometimes does not, especially when your use to structure in your code. Glad to help..
