Rob Lugt got a number of answers to his question:
>Are entities containing mark-up allowed in attribute values?
>For example, is the following document well-formed?
><?xml version="1.0"?>
><!DOCTYPE message [
><!ENTITY greet "<greeting>Hi</greeting>">
>]>
><!--Atribute value has an entity reference: &greet; which contains
mark-up! -->
><message value="&greet;"/>
>If not, can somebody point out where in the XML 1.0 spec this is mandated?
More light is shed on this if the Annotated SML spec at
http://www.xml.com/axml/testaxml.htm
Look at section 3.1. Tim Bray spells out what these restrictions are there
for.
