Maybe I'm misunderstanding Whitespace. Please help resolve this
mis-understanding. I'm using xml schema and I have three options for
whitespace: collapse, replace, and preserve.
<Account name = "Maximum Gen VAR (GVC+)">
Is the space "Maximum" and "Gen" whitespace?
OR my xml editor (XML Instance) seems to format my xml files.
LIKE:
<HourList>
<Hour xsi:null = "true"/>
<Hour xsi:null = "true"/>
<Hour xsi:null = "true"/>
<Hour xsi:null = "true"/>
<Hour xsi:null = "true"/>
<Hour xsi:null = "true"/>
<Hour xsi:null = "true"/>
<Hour xsi:null = "true"/>
<Hour xsi:null = "true"/>
<Hour xsi:null = "true"/>
<Hour xsi:null = "true"/>
<Hour xsi:null = "true"/>
<Hour xsi:null = "true"/>
<Hour xsi:null = "true"/>
<Hour>0</Hour>
<Hour>0</Hour>
<Hour>0</Hour>
<Hour>0</Hour>
<Hour>0</Hour>
<Hour>0</Hour>
<Hour>0</Hour>
<Hour>0</Hour>
<Hour>0</Hour>
<Hour xsi:null = "true"/>
</HourList>
When I parse this with Xerces the HourList Node has 49 children, but it
really only has 24.
It that also whitespace?
Thanks Keith

Subject: Re: Ignorable Whitespace
if your dtd allows whitespace in a node then it is NOT ignorable even though
it
seems so to you. i.e. if its #text then whitespace is ok and the parser
doesn't
ignore it. it can't know that you don't need it.
