> We are parsing large numbers of xml files with DOM and are very occasionally 
> getting a null pointer exception when parsing.  In this case we tracked the 
> problem down to a point in the text where there was a quoted attribute inside 
> quoted text:
> “[a]nimals should be housed in facilities dedicated to or assigned for 
> that purpose...<bibr rid="b2"/>&rdquo;
> Any of the following changes to the document would get rid of the null 
> pointer exception and allow parsing:
> 1) Changing the bibr tag to a different without any attributes.
> 2) Removing the outside quotes.
> 3) Moving the bibr tag to outside the quotes.
