Stephen,
Thanks . for the input . still seems like it should be more trivial [ DomRepresentation#setIndent(boolean), perhaps ] Cliff Binstock Coyote Reporting _____ From: Stephen Groucutt [mailto:stephen.grouc...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, February 05, 2009 1:41 PM To: discuss@restlet.tigris.org Subject: Re: DOM formatting Hi, Have you considered subclassing DomRepresentation and overriding its createTransformer() method to set the output properties you want (in your case, OutputKeys.INDENT to yes)? I had a case where I had to modify some properties of the XML being produced, and I found that the easiest way to do it was to subclass the representation in this way.

However, it would be nice if there was "pretty-print" option that provided easy-to-look at XML. Of course, I can (and probably will) run the DOM through my own transformation to pretty-print, but it seems like use case might be a common desire. My current use case is building a Document with Elements, but no Text nodes, so the resultant XML is one unreadable line. If there is an existing trivial way to do this, great. If not, consider this a feature request. Thanks!
