If not for a DTD, how do you know that the whitepsace between </color> and <size> is ignorable? If <car> contains mixed content, it wouldn't be ignorable.
I guess I'm starting to understand that, even though it frustrates me to no end. When dealing with XML as a data format (read: data, not markup like html, or other documents) there's rarely mixed content. Or at least, it's the exception to the rule. In any case, I was hoping I'm not the only person who's had this frustration when trying to deal with XML as a data format. ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
