However, the XML specification explicitly forbids this. And we should try to follow the specifications, I think, otherwise it becomes a mess. Then again, maybe that already happened due to the other mobile browsers out there... One way forward would be defining a version of XML that has explicit error recovery rules for user agents to follow. (So that basically you can deterministically create an XML document from any string.) -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/> <http://www.opera.com/>
