XML save issue in .NET

[Amendra]

Hi,

Currently we are using the .NET XMLDocument Class to manipulate some xml
documents. The issue we are having is that when we save the XML files using
the classes save method, empty xml tags will be saved with a CRLF instead of
the empty value. This can be solved by setting the PreserveWhiteSp ace
property to true. But then the indentation is lost.

E.g.:-
Before Saving this is how the tags are.

<Test></Test>

After saving

<Test>
</Test>


Has anybody come across this, is there any solution for this.

Thanks
Amendra.

You have to choose what to preserve - either indentation of whitespace.
Alternatively implement your own indentation algorithm.

Set IsEmpty on XmlElement to true.
