Cannot Get Whitespace Characters

[ivan603]

I have a problem to get the content's characters using DOM object in VB. Belows are my coding:

Code: Select all

 

   Dim objDOM As New DOMDocument40

   Dim nodeOne As IXMLDOMElement



   objDOM.preserveWhiteSpace = True

   Set nodeOne = objDOM.createNode("element", "TestNode", "")



   nodeOne.nodeTypedValue = Chr(13) & Chr(10) & Chr(32) & Chr(9) & "  hello   " & _

                            Chr(10) & Chr(13) & Chr(32) & Chr(9) & _

                            "?" & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & Chr(32)

When i retrieve back the content(one chanracter by one character) from nodeOne, the character Chr(13) has missing.

Because of that, i add a line of coding to assign the node data type to "string" as shown as belows:

Code: Select all

nodeOne.dataType = "string"

now, the characters Chr(13) is preserved but the problem now is all the whitespaces infront of "Hello" and all the whitespaces after the character "?" has missing. It seems like 'Trim' function in VB.

Can someone know how to preserve all the whitespaces, please reply my message.

Thank you.
