           Summary: Failure to normalize attributes defined as CDATA
           Product: Xerces-J
           Version: 1.4.3
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Xerces appears to fail to remove leading and trailing whitespaces
for attribute values which are defined as CDATA in DTDs.

For example, given the following XML (with DTD embedded),

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE A [
  <!ELEMENT A (B*) >
  <!ELEMENT B (#PCDATA) >
  <!ATTLIST B attB1 CDATA #REQUIRED
  >
]>
<A>
  <B attB1="  A   B   C   "/>
</A>


The value of attB1 is returned as "  A   B   C   " as intact,
however, it really should have returned "A   B   C" if attribute
normalization is correctly applied as clearly stated in XML 1.0
second edition.
