http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15255 Wrong definitions for predefined entities lt and amp in XML source for docs ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2002-12-11 00:38 ------- This is what I thought in the first place, but ... by examining the XML recommandation (Second Edition), it seems that there is only a well-formedness error when not-well-formed entities are referenced. There is no such well-formedness constraint for the entity definition itself. For an example, see the note at the end of the chapter "2.3 Common Syntactic Constructs" http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml#sec-common-syn In this special case, thoses entities never get referenced since they are predefined within the parser! They cannot be redefined, for example: <!ENTITY lt "some very stupid text"> does not change the text produced by the parser. My humble opinion, is that the Xerces parser does the right thing, others (e.g. msxml) are wrong. The docs need a change anyway. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
