Re: [xml-dev] XHTML modularisation causes strange error with MSXML

Ann - I agree, and thanks for correcting me. "Trick" is the wrong
word, I didn't want to imply that it is illegal - just using the full
DTD methodology, as you said. The problem is indeed with 
MSXML and has been known for a while.

 They weren't "tricks", though no one is claiming that they
aren't are
 complicated DTDs. Heavily parameterized DTDs are legal, and
should (and can
 be) parsed appropriately by a robust parser.
 
 The issue is MSXML, issues that have been repeatedly brought to
Microsoft's
 attention, and so far are not forthcoming with corrections.
