White space property between blocks

Question

Is the CSS white space property supposed to affect spaces between block elements?

For example, in the document used as an example in Whitespace in the DOM, "as follows, between and <p>:

<!-- My document -->
<html>
<head>
  <title>My Document</title>
</head>
<body>
  <h1>Header</h1>
  <p>
    Paragraph
  </p>
</body>
</html>

, 'xml: space' "" , ( , ). :
.
.
( , "xml: space" "" ).
( , "xml: space" "" ).

:

CSS <body>, (, </h1> <p>)? , white-space ?
XHTML , a <body> PCDATA (.. ). , ( ), <body> / CSS? </h1> <p> , <body>, / - , <div style="white-space: pre"> <body> ?
" " " , ( ) " . ( )?
( , ) ? , <p>The <strong> lazy </strong> dog.</p> <strong>? ( HTML 4 ; , , - /// XHTML CSS.)
