found well-formedness holes in every XML-outputting system he has cared
to try.
He even managed to make Validator.nu produce ill-formed output. The bug
was in the Xalan serializer--a widely distributed library written by
experts. (Astral characters were serialized as two numeric character
references for the corresponding surrogates.)
Perhaps he'd care to take a whack at XOM one of these days?
Test code:
public static void main(String[] args) {
Element root = new Element("x", "x:&");
Document doc = new Document(root);
System.out.println(doc.toXML());
}
Output from XOM 1.1:
<x xmlns="x:&" />
The 'xmlwf' tool says: "STDIN:1:13: not well-formed (invalid token)"
(Alternate way of testing: "java nu.xom.samples.XMLPrinter
http://philip.html5.org/misc/ampersand-in-xmlns.xml")
But that's the only well-formedness error I've been able to find so far.
