Sorry, I do not understand your answer. I have XML files that when opened in XXE show 'boxes' in place of '\r', '\t' etc. You are saying there is a way to filter these out in XXE? Or that I need to ensure they are not there in the first place? >> Is there any way that users of XXE can paste text from the clipboard >> (from another application) containing "Paragraphs" (ie. >> text\r\rtext\r\rtext) and end up with paragraphs in XXE? ie. have the >> same behaviour as if they had typed those '\r' s?
