It appears as if XXE (2.5p4, under linux) fails to load a document if a comment contains two minus signs (--); even though it allows that character sequence to be entered into the document. XXE also fails to load a document containing a comment that ends in a dash (as in, <!--this comment ends in a dash --->), even though it allows this comment to be inserted into a document. I'm ok with the decision to not load a document that isn't well formed; however, if this is the requirement, then XXE should keep users from entering (or at least saving) broken XML. For an XML editor to allow an XML syntax error to be entered and saved is bad, but to not be able to use the same editor to fix the error (after saving), is even worse.
-- William P.S. I looked on the support FAQ and on the Users Wish List before posting. I hope this isn't a repeat of something that is already known.
