Re: Bug parsing xhtml-strict schema

[Michael Glavassevich]

Hi Michael,

I'm not aware of any patch. With Xerces 2.6.2, you'd have to modify the schema file. Try replacing instances of [-+] in patterns with [+\-]. We do track schema errata, so if this portion of E2-18 is indeed rescinded it will undoubtedly be addressed in some future release, allowing validation with the original xhtml-strict schema again.

Thanks.
