Hello,

I'm trying to parse a SMIL1.0 dtd using xerces 2.7.0. I'm getting the
following exception:
SMILMessage::parse: SAX Parse Error parsing the xml file: Expected comment
or CDATA
SMILMessage::parse: Line: 18
SMILMessage::parse: Column: 2

This has worked previously in a different environment which was using xerces
2.4.0 (even though I cannot confirm now that switching back solves this due
to incompatabilities of operating systems).

The SMIL file looks like below where the error seem to occur on the id-attr
definition. I'm really really puzzled here and would appreciate any help!
