Finding whitespace or text between a node and its next sibling using XSLT

I have an XML document that contains the following extract example:

<p>
    Some text <GlossaryTermRef href="123">term 1</GlossaryTermRef><GlossaryTermRef href="345">term 2</GlossaryTermRef>.
</p>

I use XSLT to convert this to XHTML using the following template:

<xsl:template match="GlossaryTermRef">
    <a href="#{@href}" class="glossary">
        <xsl:apply-templates select="node()|text()"/>
    </a>
</xsl:template>

This works pretty well, however do I need to insert a space between the two elements GlossaryTermRefif they appear next to each other?

Is there a way to determine if there is a space or text between the current node and the next-sibling? I can’t always insert a space GlossaryTermRef, as it can be followed by a punctuation mark.

I managed to solve this problem by modifying the template as follows:

<xsl:template match="GlossaryTermRef">
    <a href="#{@href}" class="glossary">
        <xsl:apply-templates select="node()|text()"/>
    </a>
    <xsl:if test="following-sibling::node()[1][self::GlossaryTermRef]">
        <xsl:text> </xsl:text>
    </xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
