I cannot thank you enough.. i have posted on so many forums and no one ever gets back to me! I will be using this more often!

I now have another issue, The XML i have been left with has line breaks, see below:

Code:
 Sending XML          :

 <document> <docRequestID>2010-10-22-11.57.22.903813</docRequestID><docStylesh

 eet>Thunderhead</docStylesheet><requestType>claim</requestType><level0Object>

  <objectType>transaction</objectType><objectID>900</objectID><objectSeq>1</ob
 Line break has effected tag
 jectSeq><level1Object> <objectType>lifelite</objectType><objectID>901</object

As you can see, the line break has effected this tag half is on the line below and this XML cannot be used like that. I would like for it to remove the linespaces at the start of the line, looking like : </object>

Thank you so much for your help!!

NAME
XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter - output XML in canonical XML format SYNOPSIS
use XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter; $writer = XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter OPTIONS; $parser->parse(Handler => $writer); DESCRIPTION
"XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter" is a PerlSAX handler that will return a string or write a stream of canonical XML for an XML instance and it's content. "XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter" objects hold the options used for writing the XML objects. Options can be supplied when the the object is created, $writer = new XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter PrintComments => 1; or modified at any time before calling the parser's `"parse()"' method: $writer->{PrintComments} = 0; OPTIONS
IOHandle IOHandle contains a handle for writing the canonical XML to. If an IOHandle is not provided, the canonical XML string will be returned from `"parse()"'. PrintComments By default comments are not written to the output. Setting comment to a true value will include comments in the output. AUTHOR
