Re: Ampersands choke XHTML parsers

[Brad Cox]

Good catch! I fixed that, but am still getting exactly the same 
problem. Note that the message explicitly complains "Encountered 
"and" at line 2, column 15.", and "and" isn't in the list of things 
its expecting.

I think your problem is an illegal #then.  It's a PITA I know to keep
switching languages, easy to overlook these things.  Remember in velocity
the syntax is
#if (condition)
display this
#elseif (another condition)
display that
#else
otherwise display this
#end

 Geir, apparently I don't have the version with your changes. I've
 tried the latest nighly build and the CVS checkout for
 jakarta-velocity according to the instructions on the CVS download
 build.
 cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvspublic login
 cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvspublic checkout
 jakarta-velocity
 Built that with ant and am using bin/velocity-1.5-dev.jar from the
 top level dir, mod time=today.

 $context.setViewer($person)
 $context.gotoPage($task.findPage("locker")) #end #end
 #header()
