Re: [Exist-open] Inline whitespace question

[Joe v. D. <jo...@va...>]

Thanks for your reply! I think I'm closer to where the problem is - 
with these settings, if I modify the file directly in the GUI client, 
the spaces are preserved. However, if I modify it via XUpdate, the 
spaces are stripped out. So I'd assume whatever parses XUpdate 
statements is doing it, before eXist's indexer. I tried adding 
xml:space="preserve" to the <xupdate:update> statement, but it didn't 
have any effect.

For what it's worth, if I add the xml:space directive directly to the 
<p> tag, everything is indexed fine. Obviously though, that isn't 
feasible for large documents. Is there a setting to tell XUpdate to 
preserve whitespace?
