[basex-talk] How to prevent formatting of specific nodes

26 Jun 2014

      Hi,
Using org.basex.io.serial.Serializer to serialize nodes from a DB, I want
to be able to prevent formatting/indentation of specific nodes.
For example:

<body>
<pre><b>test</b></pre>
</body>

When serializing something like that, the output will be:

<body>
    <pre>
        <b>test</b></pre>
</body>

The desired output would be:

<body>
    <pre><b>test</b></pre>
</body>

I.e. the pre elements must not be indented.

I only found this parameter for the serializer

cdata-section-elements

Which I guess would enclose the contents of the pre elements by CDATA:

<body>
    <pre><![CDATA[<b>test</b>]]></pre>
</body>

Which would not be the desired output.

Thanks!
