that's an interesting observation. here's the output from a simple load-and-serialize script (using the XML serializer in Kid 0.7.1). for each test, the script prints the input and output: -------------------------------------------------------------------- <div><span/></div> -------------------------------------------------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ascii"?> <div><span /></div> -------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------- <div> <span/></div> -------------------------------------------------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ascii"?> <div> <span /> </div> -------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------- <div>x <span/></div> -------------------------------------------------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ascii"?> <div>x <span /></div> -------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------- <div> <span/></div> -------------------------------------------------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ascii"?> <div> <span /> </div> -------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------- <div> <span/> <span/></div> -------------------------------------------------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ascii"?> <div> <span /> <span /> </div> -------------------------------------------------------------------- looks like Kid's parser leaves whitespace in a buffer somewhere. </F>
