You are adding LFs when you shouldn't > "Unfortunately XXE converted all my XHTML5 ends-of-line from CRLF to LFLF!" isn't good enough; if XXE really did do such a silly thing I want to know about it, but I need to know how to reproduce it. Did you open a file with one CRLF in XXE, save it, then open it in a plaintext editor and find LFLF? Or what? As far as I can tell XXE does exactly what an XML editor should do. Which is NOT what a plaintext editor should do! -Gregg
