I have a page that is generated which inserts an HTML comment near the top of the page. Inside the comment is a *nix-style command. <!-- command --option value --option2 value2 --option3 --> This comment breaks the page completely. What is wrong with the comment to cause this to happen, and why is this the case?...
I'm trying to "install SGML::Parser::OpenSP" from the cpan shell, but it fails on the first "make test". I also get the same error if I go into the build directory and run make test. I believe this bit of the output below is the relevant part. Note the Symbol not found when perl gets to the "use" line for the new library. The file list...
I'm looking for an open-source SGML parser written in plain C. This is to parse bona-fide SGML, not malformed stuff. Any ideas? ...

In my C# project, I have been dealt with the task of parsing an SGML file and have tried, very naively, to use XmlReader, and this has led to some interesting revelations (i.e., the difference between SGML and well-formed XML, etc.) So I am thinking that I just need a good SGML parser which converts it to an XML file and go from there. ...
I'm looking for this definition to make my HTML renderer conform a bit better. Currently it's guessing which whitespace to keep, which to collapse and what to throw. The SGML standard is hard to find and the HTML standard doesn't seem to treat the subject with the required depth for my needs. Currently my renderer parses the HTML into a...
I have a task at work that involves converting legacy SGM files into XML. The SGM files were created using 5 separate high level tags, the new DTD has about 8-12 top level tags that the old ones would need to be mapped to. There are some common tags between the 2 DTDs but there are enough differences that it doesn't make sense to just do...
Hi, Does anyone know of a method, or library, to convert SGML into XML? EDIT: For clarification, I have to do the conversion in Java, and I cannot use the SP parser or the related SX tool. ...
I was trying to use http://www.jongsma.org/gc/scripts/ofx-ba.py to grab my bank account information from wachovia.

Do you know a plugin for editing SGML files within Eclipse ? ...
Hi I know the spec allows both ' and " as delimiters for attribute values, and I also know it's a good practice to always quote. However I consider " being the cleaner way, maybe it's just me having grown up with C and C++' syntax. What is the cleanest way of quoting attribute values and why? Please no subjective answers. ...

I now develop websites and XML interfaces since 7 years, and never, ever came in a situation, where it was really necessary to use the > for a >. All disambiguition could so far be handled by quoting <, &, " and ' alone. Has anyone ever been in a situation (related to, e.g., SGML processing, browser issues, XSLT, ...) where you found...
