spaces between elements...

spaces between elements...

Hello all,

I am converting a large series of SGML documents to XML. One issue I am
running into is spaces in between elements. Before I script something
to fix this, wasn't there a setting in Editor that you could use to
prevent this upon opening the document?

Just wondering if anyone had that off the top of their head, couldn't
find anything in the help...

TIA,

-Jason A. Buss

Jason,

I don't recall anything like that. But spaces between elements shouldn't cause any issues (unless you are in a mixed content model).

I think you're looking for the outputrecordlength option.
I'm not sure how this affects performance, but it was mentioned to set this
value to infinity to keep Arbortext from wrapping.
