anyone aware of a line break that can be used with XML tags?
<br /> does not work
It all depends on your application. Saying something is 'XML' only forces a constraint on format -- there is no constraint on what tags are present not any indication of what those tags mean. XML applications (which just means some interpretation of an XML document, whether by code or some other manner) determine what the tags mean, and a many and varied. In XHTML (an XML application), the <br /> tag means to force a line break, but <br /> doesn't mean anything to, say, some of the custom XML applications I've built here at work. Similarly, my <product></product> tags won't mean anything to an XHTML application.
That said, many XML applications which format english text for presentation follow the example of XHTML by making use of the <BR/> tag. But it all depends on the application.
