Simple configuration questions?

["O.K." <ch...@gmx.at>]

Hello!

I seem to be unable to find options for certain parsing
configurations... when I parse an XML-document, it also includes
Comments and even reads "new line" as text-nodes ('\n') ... is it
possible to turn that off? I don't need the comments, they are just
used for human readers and I don't need the '\n' to work one the
Document.

sorry, it is probably a very simple task and can be found in the
documentation, but as said, I can't find it.

Thanks for answering


Oliver

DOMConfiguration will give the ability to prevent comments from parsed and 
the feature whitespace-in-element-content will prevent the "ignorable 
whitespace) from being included. You must have provided a DTD or schema 
that specifies that it can be ignored. DOMConfiguration is not yet 
implemented for parsing (IE DOMBuilder). It is partially implemented 
(including the ability to remove comments) when you use it and call 
normalizeDocument.

It is currently possible to do the ignorable whitespace if you do

DOMBuilder->setFeature(X("whitespace-in-element-content"))

Note that you must have specified a DTD/schema.
