RE: Xalan count() trouble

Try changing this to:
<xsl:template match="*[not(normalize-space())]" />

In my experience, normalize-space() applied to a text node that is either empty 
or only contains whitespace returns an empty node-set (which evaluates to 
false).  The above says "give me all nodes that are children of the current 
context that do not have non-whitespace text nodes".

  It depends on what the OP means by "empty" elements.  I'd say
"*[not(node()|@*)]".
