Re: Basic question on XML structure

I wrote my example with idents like you walk trough the memory structure
in a hirachical data structure making who is who in a parent/child/sibling
understandable

<client>
<name>
<child>

isn't true "child and name" are siblings and "name" is not the parent of
"child", "client" are, and therefore they should be expressed like this:

<client>
<name>
<child>

Re: [WEB400] Basic question on XML structure






Yes, I saw it right away. I also saw it in the original poster's example.
But it has nothing to do with my question.

Along with Neill I am asking what is different between yours and the
original posters?

I don't see it. I need another clue.

Or else save us all time and just tell us.

I can't spot the difference between your snippet and the OP's apart
from
the
whitespace, which will of course be ignored by a standards compliant
parser
anyway.

Did I miss something else?

You express the XML snippits wrong, it should be

<client>
<name>bill</name>
<children>
<child>
<name>jon</name>
</child>
<child>
<name>joe</name>
</child>
</children>
</client>

<client>
<name>bill</name>
<child>
<name>jon</name>
</child>
<child>
<name>joe</name>
</child>
</client>

The first structure is weel structured, the second isn't.

[WEB400] Basic question on XML structure






Hi all,

A little inexperienced in xml here.

Compare these 2 structures :

<client>
<name>bill</name>
<children>
<child>
<name>jon</name>
</child>
<child>
<name>joe</name>
</child>
</children>
</client>

<client>
<name>bill</name>
<child>
<name>jon</name>
</child>
<child>
<name>joe</name>
</child>
</client>

Are there any advantages or disadvantages to using or not using the
element <children>?

We do not use attributes.


Thanks.
