Re: more xml in mkiv

["Thomas A. Schmitz" <thomas.schmitz@uni-bonn.de>]

Hi all,

I'm resurrecting an ooooold thread and top-posting... For details, see  
the post below. The problem was that the content of itemizations  
sometimes disappeared in xml processed by mkiv. I emphasize  
"sometimes": now you see it, now you don't... I can't really post a  
minimal example that will be certain to display the effect, but I  
have, since May, discovered one thing:

this code:

<item>
   A
</item>

will sometimes make the A disappear. This code:

<item>A</item>

will always work correctly. So Hans, a shot in the dark: can it be  
that your lpeg xml parser can, under certain circumstances, have  
trouble with linebreaks within the xml-subtree it is trying to pick  
up? That would explain the mystery which had me baffled back in May.

All best

Thomas
