Subject: Re: DOCBOOK: Default entities not working
/ Horacio <homega@ciberia.es> was heard to say: | whenever I try to put the attribute value in between quotes when | defining an entity like: | | <!ENTITY bsd "<systemitem class="osname">BSD</systemitem>"> | | I get the following error message: | | openjade:entidades.ent:1:34:E: name start character invalid: only delimiter ">" and parameter separators are allowed | | Is there any substitute for double quotes for declaring entities? Yep. Single quotes: <!ENTITY bsd '<systemitem class="osname">BSD</systemitem>'> or <!ENTITY bsd "<systemitem class='osname'>BSD</systemitem>"> And if you really needed both kinds, ' and " are ' and " respectively | Also, some default entities like [, ], …, ... | donīt produce the expected character output. Iīve noticed this | also happens in some documents around the Internet. Is there any | solution other than declaring an entity which should be declared | by default? It's reallly a matter of what HTML browsers understand, not the SG/XML sources. Be seeing you, norm -- Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com> | It is better to waste one's youth http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/ | than to do nothing with it at Chair, DocBook Technical Committee | all.--Georges Courteline
