I'm trying to create a simple XML document which holds information
regarding text styling, so it is important to maintain white space
between words, but I'm having difficulty achieving this. Here's an
example.
I'd like to form this string into an XML element:
NSString *xmlString =@"<paragraph>The <bold>cat</bold> <italic>sat</
italic> on the <bold>mat</bold></paragraph>";
if I try this:
NSXMLElement *xml = [[[NSXMLElement alloc]initWithXMLString:xmlString
error:&err]autorelease];
then I lose the spacing between 'cat' and 'sat'.
I can use:
NSXMLDocument *xml = [[[NSXMLDocument alloc]
initWithXMLString:xmlString options:NSXMLNodePreserveWhitespace
error:&err]autorelease];
which preserves spacing, though I don't want a new NSXMLDocument, I
need a new element to add to an existing document.
Is there a way of creating an NSXMLElement with
'options:NSXMLNodePreserveWhitespace'?
I've attempted using:
NSXMLElement *xml = [[[NSXMLElement alloc]
initWithKind:NSXMLElementKind options:NSXMLNodePreserveAll]autorelease];
and then setting the name and string. However, the XML in the string
is then escaped as thus: <bold>cat</bold>
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
