Re: [xml] DAV: namespace and xmlReader

[Minor Gordon <gordon zib de>]

Daniel,

Thank you for the extremely prompt response.
I will download the CVS and test this.

In the meantime, I have another, simpler request that also has to do 
with WebDAV.

In xmlwriter.c, xmlTextWriterStartDocument line 533 you automatically 
put a \n after the ?> in <?xml version=xx ?>.  Unfortunately, 
Microsoft's WebDAV client (for WebFolders) has its own finicky XML 
parser, and it doesn't like any indentations in the WebDAV XML 
response.  It will still parse the \n, but certain functions of the 
client are disabled, most notably double clicking on files in WebDAV 
folders (I have modified xmlwriter.c to confirm this).

xmlTextWriterSetIndent(0) takes out pretty printing in the document 
itself.  Can you also check this setting before printing the \n after 
"?>" ?

Regards,
Minor
