XML Notes

[edit] XML Special characters

Skip the spaces between the ampersand and the name of the character. It is here because of the MediaWiki limitations

& amp;      &   
& apos;     '       
& quot;     "  
& lt;       <    
& gt;       >


& lt;       <    less than       
& gt;       >    greater than    
& amp;      &   ampersand       
& apos;     '       apostrophe      
& quot;     "  quotation mark  

Note: Only the characters "<" and "&" are strictly illegal in XML.
