How embed Carriage Return inside Value string

[Neal]

I need to store a string in XML, and I want to preserve Carriage returns and Line Feeds.  What is the normal way of doing this?   Say I have the string (in my program) as:

"Start \n  Finish"

My understanding is that CRs cannot be inside the string itself in XML as in:

TEXT="start
finish"

because the CR is just treated as white space and will be skipped when reading.  Or is the above legitimate?

Should I use the &#10  and &#13  ? as in:

TEXT="Start &#10 Finish"

Or is there some other standard way of doing this?

Thanks in advance!

I have the same problem, I want to have text like

<data>
151,151
149,149
147,147
</data>

I can not find a way to do that in tinyXML, anybody can help?

Same problem. I have an XML file like this one:
<comment>
line 1
line 2
line 3
</comment>

When I read the XML file the Carriage Returns are not treated. I tried to use the &#x000D; character and it worked but it's not very interesting.

Why the XMLSpy editor recognizes these characters but not TinyXml ?
