Problem with Saxon breaking up lines in html

When trying to transform the following, Saxon is breaking up the lines at a certain
number of characters. If you transform the following document you will find that the
assignment for javascript variable x gets broken up. Same goes for the generic 'counter
string' under the xsl:template match. This goes away when the output method isn't set to
html, but it shouldn't be a problem in output method html. <?xml
version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0"> <xsl:output
method="html" encoding="iso-8859-1" />
<xsl:template match="/"> "123456789 123456789
123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789
123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789
123456789 123456789" <xsl:text
disable-output-escaping="yes"><![CDATA[ <script
type="text/javascript"
language="JavaScript1.2"> x = "123456789 123456789
123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789
123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789
123456789 123456789" </script>
]]></xsl:text> </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Which version of Saxon are you using? This breaking of lines shouldn't happen in a
script section, but you have disguised your script section by writing the
<script> tags using disable-output-escaping rather than writing it as a
proper element node in the result tree. Why are you doing this? If necessary, you can
specify indent="no" in xsl:output to suppress this behaviour. Michael
