According to section 7 of Namespaces in XML 1.1, "Conformance of Documents":

"No attributes with a declared type of ID, IDREF(S), ENTITY(IES), or NOTATION
(can) contain any colons."

Xerces-J doesn't seem to do a check for this.  The following XML documents go
undetected:

======================= Example 1 =======================

<?xml version='1.1'?>
<!DOCTYPE root [
  <!ELEMENT root EMPTY>
  <!ATTLIST root att1 ID #REQUIRED>
  ]>

<root att1="cd:aa"/>

<!-- Attribute is of type 'ID' and it contains a colon. -->

======================= Example 2 =======================

<?xml version='1.1'?>
<!DOCTYPE root [
  <!ELEMENT root EMPTY>
  <!ATTLIST root att1 IDREF #REQUIRED>
  ]>


<root att1="cd:aa"/>

<!-- Attribute is of type 'IDREF' and it contains a colon. -->

======================= Example 3 =======================

<?xml version='1.1'?>
<!DOCTYPE root [
  <!ELEMENT root EMPTY>
  <!ATTLIST root att1 ENTITY #REQUIRED>
  ]>


<root att1="cd:aa"/>

<!-- Attribute is of type 'ENTITY' and it contains a colon. -->
