I proably confused you with my previous answer... I was replying to your question about which forum to ask questions on.

Ignorable whitespace occurs between elements and not inside character strings. XML (unlike HTML) does not normalise character content and all characters that are not markup are passed to the application. Ignorable whitespace is a device that SAX provides to help the application decide what action it may be able to take. If you are writing a SAX-based application you will need to understand this concept.
