Thanks for your help. I'm not opening it with any editor. I do the HTTP Call to the URL the vendor gives me. When I look at the "RESPDATA" (response data) just with a CRT during the download, that's when I see the structure I'm referring to.
(I have to remove the 'standalone' or remove the heading entirely in order for the xdom parser to even receive it.) I remove line feeds after the XDOM parser has done it's thing before I write to my U2 file. What was throwing me was that I suddenly had to add the extra steps of altering the heading and removing line feeds..... I've downloaded so many xml docs (and I do this all directly through UniBasic using the extentions) that I got used to seeing it a certain way. Another difference I noted in the URL response header that worked w/o the extra steps is content type text/xml and on the new URL it's shown as content type text/html. I can make it work. It just worries me that I don't know exactly why I needed to blank out the header and manage line feeds...... thanks again, Nancy From: <Stuart.Boydell <at> spotless.com.au> Subject: RE: [U2] Re: XML Issue Newsgroups: gmane.comp.db.u2.general Date: 2006-02-03 00:00:14 GMT (18 hours and 57 minutes ago) Nancy, I am presuming that you are opening the document using a text editor and then saving it to an operating system file, not a U2 file?? XML is `structure' agnostic. The layout of an XML document when opened in a text editor (for example) is unaffected by the encoding of the document. What you are seeing is probably just the difference in how the line feeds are represented in your text editor. If you need to manipulate the XML before writing it, use a specific XML editor like XMLSpy. Otherwise a text editor like EditPlus can figure out your linefeeds and is also excellent for dealing with XML. If you want to view the document with `pretty' layout, open the document with a web browser (Firefox, Internet Explorer etc).
