Example
The following example loads an XML file with a text node that contains only white space; the
foyer
tag comprises fourteen space characters. To run this example, create a text file named
flooring.xml
, and copy the following tags into it:
<house>
<kitchen> ceramic tile </kitchen>
<bathroom>linoleum</bathroom>
<foyer> </foyer>
</house>
Create a new Flash document named
flooring.fla
and save it to the same directory as the XML
file. Place the following code into the main Timeline:
// Create a new XML object.
var flooring:XML = new XML();
// Set the ignoreWhite property to true (default value is false)
flooring.ignoreWhite = true;
// After loading is complete, trace the XML object.
flooring.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
trace(flooring);
}
// Load the XML into the flooring object.
flooring.load("flooring.xml");
// Output (line breaks added for clarity):
<house>
<kitchen> ceramic tile </kitchen>
<bathroom>linoleum</bathroom>
<foyer />
</house>
If you then change the setting of
flooring.ignoreWhite
to
false
, or simply remove that
line of code entirely, the fourteen space characters in the
foyer
tag will be preserved:
...
// Set the ignoreWhite property to false (default value).
flooring.ignoreWhite = false;
...
// Output (line breaks added for clarity):
