You can declare a symbol for your whitespace, something like: "thisisawhitespace" or "nonblankspace" or ...

While (true) { Human.isLearnable = true; }

string acl = "thisisawhitespace"; or string acl = "nonblankspace"; or Something that you can recognize it as whitespace... Seems forum couldn't show my post correctly, my pleasure :laugh:

While (true) { Human.isLearnable = true; }

When the value of a node becomes " " in XML files, you have but if it has a value it seems like YourValue so if you don't want to have in your XML file, try putting a Value in it as a WhiteSpace value, Something like values I said before or anything else and while you're reading values when you reach the "thisisawhitespace" or "nonblankspace" or ... you can understand that this is a WhiteSpace, Maybe there's some other ways to have but unfortunately I don't know anything about them. While (true) { Human.isLearnable = true; }

Hey, tick the "Ignore HTML tags in this message (good for code snippets)" check box. :doh:

While (true) { Human.isLearnable = true; }

As far as I know, if you are getting the situation as described by Pedram, from a programming point of view there should be no problem as they are equivilent, but if you need to preserve the spaces have a look at xml:space="preserve" Alternatively, is it that your dataset has nulls in some fields and does not create the elements/attributes at all?

Thank you!!!! I was wondering when someone will actually come up with the proper answer :)

I use an attribute: <PUlat Align="right" Hide="false" **Null="true"** /> then if I use XSLT to transform the XML to HTML I can insert a non-breaking space in place of the null.
