In article <46FC3B73.8080501@z...> you write: >> Consider this last document : >> <?xml version="1.0"?> >> <x> </x> >> Does it contain a space inside the x element ? Not at all, it contains >> the integer 32 >technically, it doesn't contain anything unless white space preservation >is on ? It contains a space character. XML parsers are required to pass all text content to the application, including white space. The xml:space attribute is advice to the application on how to process white space in the element; it doesn't affect the fact that the space is there in the document. -- Richard -- "Consideration shall be given to the need for as many as 32 characters in some alphabets" - X3.4, 1963.
