xml and java

[MultipartRequest]

well, I have this little problem. I am parsing an xml file with jdom, the thing is I have an element which contains a large text. This text is made of different paragraphs (line breaks).
Here is the deal, when I parse the document in order to extract the element text, I loose the paragraph structure, that means it returns me the whole text with no line brakes.

How can I solve this problem??
excuse my english.

yes i do have control. I can remove, update or add elements to the xml file, I have full acces to it.

I had this problem myself. It drove me crazy because after so many characters strung together, it started to truncate the files. I inquired on several forums, but got no response. To this minute, I'm not sure if I could have accomplished this a different (or more efficient) way, but it works. I finally solved my problem by first writing a class to accept the end of para codes together (</p>) using a vector array and then tokenizing the paras subsequently to a file.

Hope this helps some. Maybe someone has a better idea?
