The parser is fine. You just have wrong expectations regarding this piece of XML. PE refs are NOT recognized in attribute values. See the XML spec at: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml#entproc This effectively means that what you think is a PErefs in your example is actually not one. -- Arnaud Le Hors - IBM Cupertino, XML Strategy Group --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
