Adding a new line/break tag in XML [duplicate]

Answer 1

This solution worked to me:

<summary>Tootsie roll tiramisu macaroon wafer carrot cake. &#xD;Danish topping sugar plum tart bonbon caramels cake.</summary>

You will have the text in two lines.

This worked to me using the XmlReader.Read method.

Answer 2

This can be addressed simple by CSS attribute:

XML: <label name="pageTac"> Hello how are you doing? Thank you I'm Good</label>

CSS

.pageText{
white-space:pre !important; // this wraps the xml text.}

HTML / XSL

<tr>
        <td class="pageText"><xsl:value-of select="$Dictionary/infolabels/label[@name='pageTac']" />
            </td></tr>

Answer 3

You don't need anything fancy: the following contains a new line (two, actually):

<summary>Tootsie roll tiramisu macaroon wafer carrot cake.       
         Danish topping sugar plum tart bonbon caramels cake.
</summary>

The question is, why isn't this newline having the desired effect: and that's a question about what the recipient of the XML is actually doing with it. For example, if the recipient is translating it to HTML and the HTML is being displayed in the browser, then the newline will be converted to a space by the browser. You need to tell us something about the processing pipeline.

Answer 4

You probably need to put it in a CDATA block to preserve whitespace

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="dummy.xsl"?>   
   <item>      
      <summary>
         <![CDATA[Tootsie roll tiramisu macaroon wafer carrot cake.                       
            Danish topping sugar plum tart bonbon caramels cake.]]>
      </summary>   
   </item> 

Answer 5

The solution to this question is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="dummy.xsl"?>
  <item>
     <summary>
        <![CDATA[Tootsie roll tiramisu macaroon wafer carrot cake. <br />      
                 Danish topping sugar plum tart bonbon caramels cake.]]>
     </summary>
  </item>

by adding the <br /> inside the the <![CDATA]]> this allows the line to break, thus creating a new line!

Answer 6

Wanted to add my solution:

< br/ >

which is basically the same as was suggested above
In my case I had to use &lt for < and &gt for > Simply putting <br /> did not work.
