Re: [Zope] RDFSummary issue

It appears that either this product or a Python XML parsing function is converting "&" into "&", instead of "&". Browsers don't seem to mind, but Zope's TAL parser evidently doesn't recognize "&" as an entity (not that it should)

The XML spec (following the SGML spec) allows "&#[0-9]+;" as character entity references. Therfore, the "0" is not necessary and "&" is perfectly valid. I fear however, that the HTML parser used by TAL does not recognize any entity reference but passes them unchanged. If they happen to appear in a place where HTML quoting is active they get quoted. -- Dieter
