Hi Steve,
I don't have experience with your particular problem, however, a common fix
for "named" symbols is to use their numeric equivalent.
If you look up something like "times html entities" on google you should be
able to find the numeric equivalent and maybe fix your problem.
I believe the ones for times is:
×
Doesn't that break the nice feature of namned entities that you don't
have to worry about things like utf-8 or iso-8859-1?
--------------------
I think numeric/named entities both work no matter what character set you are
using.
BTW: I really only offered that suggestion as a possible quick fix that MIGHT
work, so that Steve might be able to continue working while waiting for
responses. Steve has since responded to me and let me know that it didn't work
for him. I think the response wasn't CC'd to the list so here it is:
Yes, but then you still have to write ×. My point is that it should be possible
to write all of these entities without quoting the ampersand. If &, >, <,
and probably a few others make it through, then all the other codes ought to go through too.
Dave's XML response may be the correct answer to Steve's original question.
