XmlMarkup gives 2 root elements

Hi there,

I try to check out what's the best way to create a small XML File (need
it for a bank transfer)

Anyway: I try the following under the ruby console:

require 'builder'
x = Builder::XmlMarkup.new
x.instruct!
test = x.Hello("World!", "type" => "global")

What I receive in test is the following:

<inspect/>
<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>
<Hello type=\"global\">World!</Hello>"

So how can I get rid of the <inspect/> element. I think this file is A
BIT against the W3C XML standard.

Thanks for any advices,

Holm

Try it without irb. Standard IRB automatically calls "inspect" on the builder object after each line which adds the "inspect" element ;).

Hi Florian,

But now I know it forever.
