is there some document or reference that explains how the libxml2 library views entity conversion? by default, it appears that '&' gets convert to '&' when reading strings in, but when assigning content to a node, teh same '&' gets an 'unterminated entity reference'. i am using the ruby binding; my intuition is that the problem lies in the binding, but i thought i'd ask here first. ------------------ Andrew Hume (best -> Telework) +1 732-886-1886 andrew research att com (Work) +1 973-360-8651 AT&T Labs - Research; member of USENIX and LOPSA |
