<?php

include("chilkat.php");
// Use "chilkat_9_5_0.php" for versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0

$xml = new CkXml();

// If autoTrim is true, then the content inside an leaf element is trimmed.
// For example:
$autoTrim = true;
$xml->LoadXml2('<abc><xyz>  123   </xyz></abc>',$autoTrim);
print $xml->getXml() . "\n";

// Output is:
// (notice the SPACE chars before and after "xyz" are trimmed)

// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// <abc>
//     <xyz>123</xyz>
// </abc>

// If autoTrim is false, then the content inside leaf elements are not trimmed.
$autoTrim = false;
$xml->LoadXml2('<abc><xyz>  123   </xyz></abc>',$autoTrim);
print $xml->getXml() . "\n";

// Output is:

// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// <abc>
//     <xyz>  123   </xyz>
// </abc>

// --------------------------------------------------------------------
// The EmitCompact property controls whether XML is emitted indented (pretty-printed)
// or compact.  For example:

// Auto-trim + emit compact:
$autoTrim = true;
$xml->LoadXml2('<abc><xyz>  123   </xyz></abc>',$autoTrim);
$xml->put_EmitCompact(true);
print $xml->getXml() . "\n";

// Output is:

// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// <abc><xyz>123</xyz></abc>

// No Auto-trim + emit compact:
$autoTrim = false;
$xml->LoadXml2('<abc><xyz>  123   </xyz></abc>',$autoTrim);
$xml->put_EmitCompact(true);
print $xml->getXml() . "\n";

// Output is:

// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// <abc><xyz>  123   </xyz></abc>
