DOCBOOK:Réf. : DOCBOOK: Default entities not working

[Philippe dot DAIGREMONT at altadis dot com]

For your quoting problem, try this :
<!entity bsd "<systemitem class=osname>BSD</systemitem>">
or this
<!entity bsd '<systemitem class=osname>BSD</systemitem>'>
or even
<!entity bsd '<systemitem class="osname">BSD</systemitem>'>

each of them seems to be valid on my configuration.
hope this helps.

regards,
Philippe Daigremont

Objet :   DOCBOOK: Default entities not working



Hello,

whenever I try to put the attribute value in between quotes when
defining an entity like:

<!ENTITY bsd "<systemitem class="osname">BSD</systemitem>">

I get the following error message:

openjade:entidades.ent:1:34:E: name start character invalid: only delimiter
">" and parameter separators are allowed

Is there any substitute for double quotes for declaring entities?


Also, some default entities like &lsqb;, &rsqb;, &hellip;, ...
don´t produce the expected character output.  I´ve noticed this
also happens in some documents around the Internet.  Is there any
solution other than declaring an entity which should be declared
by default?

FYI, I´m using DocBook 4.1 SGML and OpenJade v1.3 with OpenSP
v1.3.4


Thank You,
--
Horacio
