Hi all,
Is there a known way to ignore whitespace when loading an xml document through DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl?
Set
DocumentBuilderFactory#setIgnoringElementContentWhitespace(boolean) to
true. You should note that this feature works only when element content
is made avaliable to the parser. making it mandatory for DOCTYPE
declaration to be part of XML document.

For those familiar with .NET/C#, it's possible to toggle the PreserveWhitespace
flag on an XmlDocument. I can't seem to find a corollary with the xerces
parser. Any suggestions (besides formatting the input xml document on one
line)
Thanks,
Sudha
i.e.
<?xml version="1.0"?><books
price="6"><book><author>Carson</author></book></books>
as opposed to
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<books price="6">
<book>
<author>Carson</author>
<price format="dollar">31.95</price>
<pubdate>05/01/2001</pubdate>
</book>
</books>
