Hello I have the same behavior with programlisting element. It appears that this behavior is with DOCTYPE pointing to 4.2 docbook DTD or with no DOCTYPE line. But it is not with a DOCTYPE pointing to 4.1.2. I downloaded xxe's user guide as docbook source, which has DOCTYPE pointing to 4.1.2 and programlisting element, and this element is seen correct with newlines. If you replace the DOCTYPE line from ---- <!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.1.2//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.0/docbookx.dtd";> ---- to ---- <!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.2//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd";> ---- and reload the file on xxe, the programlisting element is seen in one line (i.e. the newlines are cutted out). I do not know how to have newlines in 4.2 docbook documents. What should I do then ?
