Hi,

I have an XML file that we get from a customer. If I indent XML tags, everything works apart from lines where there is an element with text in it. For these lines, all elements after this one appear on the same line and are not indented i.e.

<Test>
<Node>Some text in here<ThenAnotherNode>Something</ThenAnotherNode><AnAnotherNode>WithSomething</AnAnotherNode></Node>
</Test>

when indented,everything from <Node> onwards is not indented whereas if I remove the text, it works fine,

<Test>
<Node>
<ThenAnotherNode>Something</ThenAnotherNode>
<AnAnotherNode>WithSomething</AnAnotherNode>
</Node>
</Test>

Any idea how I can indent these lines?

Many thanks

Mike

Hi Mike,

Th Stylus Studio XML Indenter does not change element with mixed content.

As workaround you can process your XML document using the following style-sheet

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:copy-of select="/"/>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Hope this helps
