I work with signed XML files and I'm trying to read an XML file with REXML and extract a Node which I then verify against a signature. My problem is, that REXML changes the double quotes to single quotes in the XML. Everything else (such as spaces, etc) is properly kept. Unfortunately, I can not say if an XML comes with single, double, or even mixed quotes. Is there a way to get an unchanged XML from a Node/Element?

Do you sign XML files or do you just receive XML files signed by others?

Different quotations are logically equal in XML. Can you normalize XML before signing?

I just receive the XML and unfortunately have no control over the signing process.

How do others sign XML? XML Signature?

Probably different options: xmlsec1, java, etc

How do you verify a signature? Are you using xmlsec1?
