        Key: XERCERJ-347
    Summary: setPreserveSpace(true) doesn't play nice with setIndenting(true)
       Type: Bug

     Status: Open

    Project: Xerces2-J

Description:
I have a DOM tree that I create programmatically. Subsequently I use
org.apache.xml.serialize.XMLSerializer to write out the XML. I would like to
preserve all the different kind of whitespace in the XML document; so I use
setPreserveSpace() in org.apache.xml.serialize.OutputFormat.

 It works well when the identation is off. Here's some output:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<content><string id="11">I love         you</string></content>

 (note that there is a couple of tabs in the string)

But when I turn the identation on, the output is ugly: line breaks are
introduced at seemingly random places in the elements, e.g. between 2
attributes. The string content is correctly output though:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<content><string
   id="11">I love          you</string></content>


What I would like to see is

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<content>
   <string id="11">I love          you</string>
</content>
