Sharif [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 17, 2007 7:07 AM To: dom4j-user@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [dom4j-user] How do I return a org.dom4j.Document object as a nicely formatted xml string? Hi, I am trying to output the Document object using a log4j output debug statement as follows: // Create xml response document Document responseDoc = loadResource(); // log4j debug output statement logger.debug(responseDoc.asXML()); But the xml output is not nicely formatted. Is there anyway I can return a nicely formatted xml string from a dom4j Document object? I have already looked at the example provided in the FAQ page for "How can I pretty print my XML document?" http://www.dom4j.org/faq.html#pretty-print But that only shows how to write the Document, nicely formatted, to a writter. What I need is to return the Document, nicely formatted, as a String. Thanks. ********************************************************** * Saladin Sharif * e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * Visit homepage @ http://gaia.ecs.csus.edu/~sharifs ********************************************************** ____________________________________________________________________________ ________ Need Mail bonding?
