Re: [xml-dev] Dangers of Copying Text into an XML Document

["Anthony B. Coates (XML-Dev)" <abcoatesecure-xmldev@yahoo.co.uk>]

I hope you'll point out that some of the "dangers" are the dangers of  
pasting into an XML document *in a plain-text editor that doesn't  
understand character encodings*.  If you edit XML in vi or Notepad, what  
you get is your own reward.  There are significantly fewer dangers when  
you are using encoding- and XML-aware editors.

Cheers, Tony.
