I was wondering about: Should I use utf-8 upper or lower case and why

  • 0

I was wondering about:

  1. Should I use utf-8 upper or lower case and why or for what cases I need it in upper case ?

  2. Is it wrong to remove the ending space of an element to save space ?

    <myElement myAttribute="0" />

    to

    <myElement myAttribute="0"/>

    That is considering I have Huge files from 200MB to 1GB size

  3. Should I use TAB or SPACE if I wanted to save space ?

    1. Which context?
    2. No, you can’t remove that whitespace. At least not if you want to fulfill the XML 1.0 specification.
    3. One space character and one tab character need exactly one byte each. Four space characters need 4 bytes but one tab character and an editor with tabsize 4 still needs one byte. Now it’s your decision.
