Example with empty elements

Example 4

This example uses the same report, but there are two empty elements in the XML document. The first has no content, and the second has an attribute but no content. Both are imported as empty elements.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root_element>
<!-- some comment -->
<row_element>
<?process me="no"?>105<name Title="Mr">
<first>Matthew</first>
<!-- another comment -->
<last>Cobb</last>
</name>
<empty></empty>
<birthdate>04/12/1960</birthdate>
</row_element>
<row_element>148<name Title="Ms">
<empty attribute1 = "blue"></empty>
<last>Jordan</last>
</name>
<phone>6175557835</phone>
<birthdate>11/12/1951</birthdate>
</row_element>
</root_element>
