:Eddy,
:
:This is off topic for the list, but:
:
:If by "attribute literal" you mean an attribute value literal, "/" is
:allowed in CDATA attribute values. When you're not performing DTD
:validation, all attributes are considered CDATA.
That's exactly it. We are performing DTD validation and the Senior
Engineer wants to use it in an enumerated attribute.
:(Back on topic: it would be kind of tough for XSL if "/" were
:not allowed in an attribute value.)
I don't know. But does it allow for
<x:anything David/XSL="David likes XSL"/> ????
The answer is no, since when it reaches "/" it
expects the tag to end and you get an error.
However, you could do David-XSL or David_XSL or even
David.XSL but not the good old "/".
:
:This is the kind of thing that's pretty easy to test if you
:have a parser
:you trust.
Thanks for the clarification though. :-)
