User (Legacy) Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 How can I use spaces for the column names in an xml document? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Software FX Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 The column names can not have spaces as they are later used as attributes names. Space in them will create a file that is not XML compliant. You can add a DESCRIPTION attribute to each column to specify a "friendly name" for the column. This description will be used (if present) as column headers (series legend) in the chart. Example: <COLUMN NAME="Column1_Name" TYPE="Column1_Type" DESCRIPTION="Column1_Desciption" /> -- FP Software FX, Inc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Software FX Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 Note that you CAN use spaces in the description since it will not be used as an attribute, e.g. <COLUMN NAME="Column1_Name" TYPE="Column1_Type" DESCRIPTION="My Column1 Description" /> -- Regards, JC Software FX Support "SoftwareFX Support" <support@softwarefx.com> wrote in message news:Yqhu%23aDMDHA.3180@webserver1.softwarefx.com... > The column names can not have spaces as they are later used as attributes > names.
