Tested two I was interested in with MSXML4, XMLSpy 4.4 and Expat 1.95.6:
> | <!ENTITY % pe "x 'value'">
> | <!ENTITY % %pe;>
Accepted by Expat.
Rejected by
- MSXML: "Whitespace is not allowed at this location"
- XMLSpy: "Name expected"
(instead of %pe;)
> | Assuming that it is possible to declare a PE named 'percent' with a
> | literal '%', is the following allowed?
> |
> | <!ENTITY %percent; x "value">
>
> Permissible in SGML - should be okay in XML.
Accepted by MSXML4.
Rejected by
- Expat: "Unclosed token"
(it seems Expat considers % followed by a name one token)
- XML Spy: "white space expected"
(after % in "%percent;")
However, this one was accepted by both, MSXML and Expat
(still rejected by XMLSpy with same reason):
<!ENTITY % percent "% y">
<!ENTITY %percent; "value">
