dotnet xml : Backslash "\" is being added to XML Attributes, Is there a way to get rid off it?
I have not encountering this problem 'till I got VS.NET 2003. Check my xml
below how the backlash is added. I tried all possible ways to replace it but nothing happens. Any help will greatly appreciated. <SESSION_INFO_ID ID=\"434674640\"> <TEL_NBR VALUE=\"2532668900\"> <PRODUCT hcid=\"1600\"></PRODUCT> <PRODUCT hcid=\"1700\"></PRODUCT> </TEL_NBR> </SESSION_INFO_ID>
As I said below I never encounter this in previous version. I used this xml
to pass to my stored procedure and due to that character it breaks the sp. Here is the code snipet how I build the xml StringWriter strWriter = new StringWriter(); XmlTextWriter writer = new XmlTextWriter(strWriter); writer.WriteAttributeString("session_info_id", "434674640"); .......

I don't want to argue with you but have you tried that class and writing
attributes? Even my xsl transformation wouldn't recognize this crap.

Put this in your aspx.
StringWriter strWriter = new StringWriter(); XmlTextWriter writer = new XmlTextWriter(strWriter); writer.WriteStartElement("SESSION_INFO_ID"); writer.WriteStartElement("TEL_NBR"); writer.WriteAttributeString("VALUE=","4258009000" writer.WriteAttributeString("EXTN=","9000"); writer.WriteAttributeString("NAME=","Oleg Tkachenko XML MVP") writer.WriteEndElement(); writer.WriteEndElement(); string input = strWriter.ToString(); [quoted text, click to view] "Oleg Tkachenko [MVP]" <oleg@NO!SPAM!PLEASEtkachenko.com> wrote in message news:uZECZQgMEHA.3664@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... > Pete wrote: > > > I don't want to argue with you but have you tried that class and writing > > attributes? > > Well, have I tried XmlTextWriter?

As I said most likely that's visual effect - there are no slashes in XML, but Visual Studio .NET has a "feature" of showing slashes before quotes in property inspector and debug windows. Make sure there are really those slashes in XML - output it to console or file. -- Oleg Tkachenko [XML MVP]

Thanks!!
I run a profiler and the xml passes to the sp doesn't have backslashes. You were right it was just a visual effect.
