Re: XML Parser misbehaves with &

This is normal. You have illegal XML there, as it should be in <![CDATA[ value ]]>. I have run across this, and have to clean it up with an awk script. Ampersand is a no-no. Just running xmllint on the file will tell you about the problem(s). _justin Jeff Bearer wrote: > > I've come across this frustrating behavior with the XML parser when it > reads an escaped ampersand (&amp;) > > If the xml being evaluated is: <COLORS>Blue, Green &amp; Red</COLORS> > > it calls the character data handler 3 times: > the first time the $data is "Blue, Green " > the second time is "&" > and the third time is " Red" > > Needless to say this is screwing up my parser, and the stuff I'm doing > won't make it easy to add this allowance.
