Re: Is XML compressed when sent ?

yeah I figured that would be the case mike, but not sure on line
compression with DSL..
Not that it's an issue at the moment, I just thought I would start
thinking about it.
It does seem a little silly to me that a format with so much inherent
repetition does not have some mechanism for compression.
Just tokenisation alone would mean repetition in XML was pretty
irrelivant, and let's face it, anything using XML for data transfer is
pretty unlikely to be hugely latency sensitive (ie it isn't a game or
VOIP or anything like that)
