In WD-xml-lang-970331, the following production describes an entity value: [9] EntityValue ::= '"' ([^%&"] | PEReference | Reference)* '"' | "'" ([^%&'] | PEReference | Reference)* "'" Later on, however, clause 4.5 ("Predefined Entities"), states the following: If the entities in question are declared, they must be declared as internal entities whose replacement text is the single character being escaped, as shown below: <!ENTITY lt "<"> <!ENTITY gt ">"> <!ENTITY amp "&"> <!ENTITY apos "'"> <!ENTITY quot '"'> I'm afraid that I do not understand how do the entity values for < and & satisfy the EntityValue production. Am I missing something elsewhere in the draft? All the best, David -- David Megginson ak117@f... Microstar Software Ltd. dmeggins@m...
