Question for XML Gurus
Help! I'm stuck.
I have an xml file that contains a parameter that looks like this <something></something> I see this plain as day in the notepad editor. But my application isn't working and when I check the .xml file in a browser, I see only this <something> with no closer. </something> portion is missing. BUT, if I insert any character between them like this: <something>1</something> then the browser reads it correctly. Is it illegal to have no character between arguments in .xml?

Are you sure you're seeing <something> and not <something/> as a self closing tag ?
XML Spec converts <something></something> to <something/> A simple space in the element should get you around this error. ( I can't be much help after this, just something I've run into before )

Indeed. The browser shows it like that.

XML files can contain elements or attributes.
Which kind of item is it? I believe this may help: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/...l-xml-elements Your application may actually handle null values differently. If that doesn't work, I would refer to the docs of the application to confirm how it handles "empty" or "null" values. It's unclear which one you wish to handle in your first post. Quote:

Might depend on your parser... Is it asking for something to be in between and a \s (whitespace character) isn't good enough to return true?
Might be that it is asking, true or false? and only "something" returns true.

It's the actual contents of the XML that matter, not what your browser displays. What you see under "view source" when viewing xml in browser is what really matters.
