XML Transform problem

[Demon News]

I'm trying to transform an xml file that contains empty short elements like
the following:

<element attrib="abc"/>

using the XmlTransform class. But I cannot seem to preserve the short format
as everytime it get's converted to the longer format of:

<element attrib="abc"></element>

I need to preserve the shorter format, has anyone else had this problem or
got a solution?

thanks

How does your XSLT look like?

<e a="{$someXPath} " />
usually works for me.
