yes I know, I am facing the exact same problem.
I love best-case scenarios, but with xml I couldn't achieve the
first option, unless rendering the xml from a cms.

hey cedric - thanks for your response
the linebreaks are purely aesthetic, to make it easier to write
directly in the xml doc but, as you say, they could be stripped
(i'm using <p> tags already but the net result is the same). I'm
really just seeing how far i can go in my xml - the first option is
my best-case scenario

Sometimes, I strip linebreaks from the text I parse in xml, but by
doing this, you have to know for sure when you can apply such
'hardcore' rule. This could result in breaking the readability of
a paragraph.

hi folks
i'm writing some xml for my site to load in content and, because
i want to use html, i'm using cdata in my description nodes.
The problem is that if i do the following:
[xml]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<site>
<blog>
</blog>
<portfolio>
<carousel>
<carouselItem name="Test" imgUrl="icon_logo.png"
linkUrl="">
<description>
<![CDATA[<p class="heading">Heading</p>
<p>Description from xml.</p>]]>
</description>
</carouselItem>
<carouselItem name="Test" imgUrl="icon_logo.png"
linkUrl="">
<description>
<![CDATA[<p class="heading">Heading</p>
<p>Description from xml.</p>]]>
</description>
</carouselItem>
</carousel>
</portfolio>
<contact>
</contact>
</site>
[/xml]
which is the best structural way of creating it (in my opinion),
the CDATA keeps the whitespace between the 2 lines which means
that the best way (in as3's eyes) for me to do this is:
[xml]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<site>
<blog>
</blog>
<portfolio>
<carousel>
<carouselItem name="Test" imgUrl="icon_logo.png"
linkUrl="">
<description>
<![CDATA[<p class="heading">Heading</p>
<p>Description from xml.</p>]]>
</description>
</carouselItem>
<carouselItem name="Test" imgUrl="icon_logo.png"
linkUrl="">
<description>
<![CDATA[<p class="heading">Heading</p>
<p>Description from xml.</p>]]>
</description>
</carouselItem>
</carousel>
</portfolio>
<contact>
</contact>
</site>
[/xml]
which is jarring to write (again, my opinion). Is there any way
(like the old ignoreWhite param), that i can get as3 to strip the
extra tabs and linebreaks (even within CDATA)?
thanks
