Example with empty elements

Example 4

This example uses the same DataWindow object, 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.

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

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<root_element>

<row_element>

<?process me="no"?>105<name Title="Mr">

<first>Matthew</first>

</name>

</row_element>

<row_element>148<name Title="Ms">

<last>Jordan</last>

</name>

</row_element>

</root_element>

Result

The XML document produces this result:

emp_id	emp_fname	emp_lname	phone	birth_date
105	Matthew	Cobb		04/12/1960
148		Jordan	6175557835	11/12/1951
