Hm, this should actually work. Are you creating the tree from scratch
or is it parsed from an XML document? If it is the latter, then can 
you check whether the newlines are there right after parsing by 
printing the element's value?

If this doesn't help solve the problem, I will need a test case
that reproduces this (you can send it to me directly). Also, can
you let me know which platform and C++ compiler you are using as 
well as the Xerces-C++ version?
