I am new to web programming and am trying to return an xml document from the cherrypy web server. But, what I see in the browser is a string value stripped off all the xml tags. i.e.
<Foo>
<Val1>
</Foo>
<Bar>
<Val2>
</Bar>
shows up in the browser as Val1 Val2
I am sure that I am generating the document correctly but somewhere after cherrypy picks it up and sends it off to the http client, it gets changed.
Any ideas on what might be happening?
Thanks a lot!
WebKit-based browsers like Safari and Chrome hide XML markup from the rendered text. You should ask the browser to show you the source (Tools->View Source(CTRL+U) in Chrome). Firefox shows XML markup by default.
Anyhow, if you’re doing webservice development I’d recommend you to use curl. It will save you a lot of time.
