WebService request whitespace trim

Question

I have found that when invoking a WebService at runtime the
space at the end of a string in a request gets trimmed. This there
anyway this can be avoided?
Here's some code snippets...
<mx:WebService id="trimTestWS" wsdl="TrimTest?WSDL">
<mx:operation name="trimtest" resultFormat="e4x"
fault="faultHandler(event)" result="resultHandler(event)" />
</mx:WebService>
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
private function init():void {
trimTestWS.trimtest.request.data = "ABC ";
trimTestWS.trimtest.send();
I have found with the above that the XML sent from from flash
player has <data>ABC</data> rather than the expected
<data>ABC </data>. Is there someway I can preserve the
space?
Thanks in advance.

Look at the prettyPrinting and ignoreWhiteSpace properties of
the XML
object.
