Subject: Extraneous Characters in Netscape Display
I have been creating Web pages using the netscape rules file in HoTMetaL
Pro. Problems appear when I have pages with special entities. Each file
begins with:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//Netscape Corp.//DTD HTML plus Tables//EN"
"html-net.dtd"
[
<!ENTITY pound CDATA "">
]>
When using NCSA Mosaic v2B4 everything looks fine. However, with Spry Air
or Netscape, I see:
]>
at the head of each page.
I tried running it all up on one line like:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//Netscape Corp.//DTD HTML plus Tables//EN"
"html-net.dtd"[<!ENTITY pound CDATA "">]>
but I still see the "]>" in Netscape.
Is HoTMetaL doing something illegal with the !ENTITY declaration?
How do I stop this from happening???
Thanks
