RE: [xml-dev] Empty tag with attribute effective for parsing?

Sebastian,
 
the second one for a variety of reasons (accessibility,
content re-use, stylesheet use, interoperability, etc...).
 
Your content is valuable. Don't hide it away in attributes. 
Put it at the driver's seat of your XML app.

parsing?
	
	

	Hi,
	
	I have data(texts), which belong to a specific name
	By design there are two possibilities how i could solve this:
	1.
	<stringtable>
	   <string id="Greetings" val="Happy new year"/>
	   <string id="Greetings2" val="Happy birthday"/>
	</stringtable>
	
	2.
	<stringtable>
	   <string id="Greetings">Happy new year</string>
	   <string id="Greetings2">Happy birthday</string>
	</stringtable>
	
	Which of these two possibilitites would be more effective to
parse?(Xerces
	c++, two parsing methods are used, SAX and DOM)
	I would be very happy if you could help me with that.
