• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

My exe.xml can some kind soul take a squint at it

I know that adding as attachment is of no use to you Paul but might be of benefit to the original poster, Naismith or anyone else who wants to share an xml file. As Bill mentioned adding xml to a post at SOH upsets the forum software.

Well, as demonstrated by my post, it IS possible to display properly formatted XML here, but it is a massive PITA...

1. Click on # icon to create the 'code tags', add a blank line between the tags.
2. Turn OFF HTML.
3. Select XML to be pasted in your source file, press Ctrl-C to copy to the clipboard.
4. Place cursor on the blank line between the 'code tags'.
5. Click on 3rd icon from the left "Paste as plain text".
6. Save post. Do not try to do further edits!

Yahooooo! Thanks Bill. Genius at work!


Testing line 6: "Do not try to do further edits!" I just learned that one cannot edit again after it's been posted... what a mess! (I had to try it Bill)

Yep, that's the ticket. Type your entire message first, post the code last. Hope like hell you don't have to edit your post any further. 

Worst of all from my point of view is one cannot reliably copy/paste example XML scripts from a post to their XML Editing program... :banghead:
