I'm certainly no XML expert, but that doesn't seem right to me. In both of the provided examples, <jabberd:cmdline/> is a child of <host/>. In both cases, <jabberd:cmdline/> has an attribute named 'flag' with a value of 'h' and an element value of 'servername'. While there is additionally whitespace in the value of the <host/> element, that really shouldn't make much difference. > > Actually, initially i wanted to generate a configuration file for my > > jabber server from a generic jabber.xml, and my parser automatically > > produces xml flow following the second way. > > Your generator is broken - the two fragments are not equivalent. While that is technically correct, the value of <jabberd:cmdline/> and it's atrribute is the same in each, right? Additionally, in both <jabberd:cmdline/> is a child of <host/> in each, right? Please correct me if I'm wrong in any of this. The above is simply my understanding. -- Jamin W.
