I wasn't sure how to word this in the thread title.
The problem I have right now is that in one of my XML files, there's about 400 records added. When the diff is done, it gets to a point where the diff is just wrong.
I have elements with an id, so for example
<element id="000001">
</element>
So when it sees some that are in one file, but not the other, it starts messing up entirely, comparing the trailing numbers. So it will highlight the 1 and compare it with record 000003.
Can I make it ignore records that are in one file but not the other, and do a strict comparison on the ids, which I know will never be off by a few characters? (Basically compare only whole ids. Not parts of ids.)
