RE: [SA-list] delimiters

Title: Message

In the snippet below, uid="<sa_uid>" will not be allowed in a well-formed document as "<" and ">" are not allowed in an attribute.

 

<host>
    <hostname uid="<sa_uid>" hostid="<sa_hostid>">
         <sa_hostname>                                              <------- this is not well-formed either as it has no closing tag
    </hostname>
    <prettyname>
         <sa_prettyname>
    </prettyname>

    .

    .

    .

</host>

 

I can make this XML document perform the way I want it to, but most XML editors won't work efficiently unless the document is well-formed.

 

thanks

Hi folks,

 

is there a way of changing the <> (greater and less than) symbols the denote the <sa_xxx> tags used for HTML output?  I can make them work in XML, but it's not considered a well-formed document, and so I can't make any <sa_xxx> data a tag attribute.  The &lt; &gt; encoders don't work either.

 

thanks
