/ Horacio <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> was heard to say:
| whenever I try to put the attribute value in between quotes when
| defining an entity like:
|
| <!ENTITY bsd "<systemitem class="osname">BSD</systemitem>">
|
| I get the following error message:
|
| openjade:entidades.ent:1:34:E: name start character invalid: only delimiter ">" and
|parameter separators are allowed
|
| Is there any substitute for double quotes for declaring entities?
Yep. Single quotes:
<!ENTITY bsd '<systemitem class="osname">BSD</systemitem>'>
or
<!ENTITY bsd "<systemitem class='osname'>BSD</systemitem>">
And if you really needed both kinds, ' and " are ' and "
respectively
| Also, some default entities like [, ], …, ...
| don�t produce the expected character output. I�ve noticed this
| also happens in some documents around the Internet. Is there any
| solution other than declaring an entity which should be declared
| by default?
It's reallly a matter of what HTML browsers understand, not the SG/XML
sources.
Be seeing you,
