Thanks Oisin, I don't seen anything at [1] that specifically mentions canonicalization. Is the sample code you refer to the DocumentTracer.java?

What might be useful here is some XML Canonicalization (c14n) code that will munge both XML sources to a canonical form and then compare those forms. This does things like elide extraneous whitespace in the elements, reorder attributes using a particular algorithm, optionally remove comments and that kind of thing. The Canonical XML spec is at [0], but you might be more interested in the example implementation which you can find in the Xerces samples at [1]. A candidate for that testutils jar that Dan was talking about, perhaps. regards Oisin [0] http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-c14n [1] http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/xerces/java/trunk/samples/sax/ Writer.java --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
