Hi, We have noticed that, with an XML file such as:
<A> <B> <C> Bono </C> </B> </A> if one asks how many childs <A> tags owns (using getLength() on getDocumentElement().getChildNodes() ), the answer is 3. After investigation, whitespaces between <A> and <B>, then between </B> and </A> are interpreted as text nodes. On the same example, the XML parser included in IE 5.0 ignores these whitespaces and the answer is 1. We think that 1 is the correct answer. I really wonder: Isn't it weird? Is it the normal behavior? Is there a means to disable this, and have an IE-5.0-like behaviour? Is it an actual compliance to XML and DOM specs? Regards, jean-christophe broudin.
