I am trying to generate an RDF file with Smarty, but I am getting a blank line after {/foreach} which is breaking the file.

I am surrounding all the xml with {literal} to get rid of as much whitespace as possible, but can't get rid of the blank line after {/foreach}

anyone run across this before and know a workaround?

I didn't realize that xml was sensitive to linebreaks (?)

I may be reading this wrong, but this doesn't look right:

<RDF:Seq about="urn:things:{$key}" />
{/foreach}{literal}</RDF:li>
</RDF:Seq>

should it not be

<RDF:Seq about="urn:things:{$key}" >
{/foreach}{literal}</RDF:li>
</RDF:Seq>

??

But then the {/foreach} looks misplaced...

AFIK XML is sensetive to line breaks but you could always run it through the {strip}...{/strip} block

and AFAIK smarty doesn't emit newlines neither after "{foreach}" nor after "{/foreach}".

the problem was {literal} was adding the blank lines. I futz with it enough to get rid of the breaks in the wrong places.

XML is sensivite only in certain locations. Depends on how the dataset is structured.

also, adding
Header("Content-Type: text/xml");
to the php

helped a lot.
