( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Gee, some people use form feed for different things. We should be sure to prevent them from sending form feeds to each other. We'll save the world so much confusion. We'll be heros.

Bob, that data you sent in XML needs a page break in the middle.

We use a form feed for that, Jim.

Gosh, so do we.

I'm glad the designers of XML 1.1 appear to be a bit more clueful.

Perhaps if Tim Bray had heard of an obscure thing called "ASCII" he might not produce such whoppers as "exactly zero shared semantics from system to system". And even if such were true, it'd still be a lousy reason to disallow them -- perhaps XML should require all tag names to exist in the Esperanto dictionary since most words have zero shared semantics from language to language. Sheesh.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
