i have a good function to figure out white space with xml.ingorewhite,post here:
//from Demon.S function lib
// Strips whitespace nodes from an XML document
// by passing twice through each level in the tree
XML.prototype.stripsWhite=stripsWhite;
function stripsWhite (XMLnode) {
// Loop through all the children of XMLnode
for (var i = 0; i
// If the current node is a text node...
if (XMLnode.childNodes[i].nodeType == 3) {
// ...check for any useful characters in the node.
var j = 0;
var emptyNode = true;
for (j=0; j // A useful character is anything over 32 (space, tab,
// new line, etc are all below).
if (XMLnode.childNodes[i].nodevalue.charCodeAt(j)>32) {
emptyNode = false;
break;
}
}
// If no useful charaters were found, delete the node.
if (emptyNode) {
XMLnode.childNodes[i].removeNode();
}
}
}
// Now that all the whitespace nodes have been removed from XMLnode,
// call stripWhitespaceDoublePass on its remaining children.
for (var k = 0; k ignoreWhite(XMLnode.childNodes[k]);
}
}
