Numeric character references.

From: <maherb@brimworks.com> Date: Mon, 19 Aug 2002 12:29:46 -0400 (EDT) To: www-validator@w3.org Message-ID: <20020819092902.A5355@brimworks.com> · This archive was generated by hypermail 2.4.0 : Friday, 17 January 2020 22:58:29 UTC

In the HTML 4.01 specification on this page,

http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/charset.html#h-5.3.1

describes numeric character references which are perfectly legal,
however when validating with such numeric character reference, I
recieve an error:

 * Line 106, column 5:

    &#151;foo bar<br>
         ^

Error: reference to non-SGML character

Thanks,
-Brian
