Ignoring spaces, tabs and line in XML DOM parsing

Thread view: 
Sandeep - 13 Jan 2006 13:42 GMT
Hi,
I am parsing an XML file using xerces DOM parser. The problem is, the
DOM gets created with spaces, newlines and tabs as a TEXT section.

Hence  if XML is,

<Address><Name></Name></Address>
first child of "Address" is "Name"

if XML is
<Address>
<Name></Name>
</Address>

first child of "Address" is "\n".

Is there a way i can configure the parser to ignore all white
spaces,tabs and newline characters ?

Thanks
Sandeep

Yes, there is a way but the exact method escapes me at the moment.
Start digging in the parser API, perhaps look at the properties
recognized by your parser.

HTH,
