XML document emty tags

Hi .

I have a problem with the empty tags when I am generating the XML document.

The CALL TRANSFORMATION generates de end-tag without de start-tag (I know that is well formed) but we need that generates with start-tag.

For example generates:

<item>

u2026.

</item>

And we need:

<item>

u2026.

</item>

We almost try with IF_XLM_DOCUMENT and behave the same.

Any suggestion?

Thanks and best regards

That is how XML puts empty tags.

i dont think it can be changed...

XML provides special syntax for representing an element with empty content. The following examples are equivalent in XML:

<tag />

<tag/>

The CALL TRANSFORMATION uses <tag/> but my client ask me to use <tag></tag>

what can I change this syntax?

Best regards and thank you
