I noticed that XMLToc contains unescaped &'s inside of PCData. This is
legal SGML but prohibited in XML per section 2.4. I think this example
shows the need to revisit the entity expansion rules in XML.

> The AnswerBook2 (ab2) manuals on docs.sun.com are organized into
> several large categories (alluser, sysadmin, etc.) with a number of
> books in each catagory. Thus, the Solaris Advanced User's Guide is
> referred to in URLs as /ab2/alluser/ADVOSUG. Two forms of XML access
> are currently supported: TOCs and document chunks. TOCs are accessed
> via the @xmlToc template, and chunks are accessed via the @xmlChunk
> template. The @xmlToc template always shows a table of contents down
> to the chapter level, no matter what level it is invoked at.

> Some examples:
>
> 1. To get a chapter-level TOC of the entire contents of the server:
>
> http://docs.sun.com/ab2/@xmlToc
>
> 2. To get a chapter-level TOC of the manuals in the alluser category:
>
> http://docs.sun.com/ab2/alluser/@xmlToc
>
> 3. To get a chapter-level TOC of the Solaris Advanced User's Guide:
>
> http://docs.sun.com/ab2/alluser/ADVOSUG/@xmlToc
>
> 4. To get a particular chapter from the manual (as listed in the TOC):
