Description
If I have a url like this inside the XML source:
http://sourceforge.net/sflogo.php?group_id=comics-grabber&type=1
validate-xdocs fails because it wants the literal & to be typed out as
& instead. So I correct it to become:
http://sourceforge.net/sflogo.php?group_id=comics-grabber&type=1
However, the generated HTML has the entity resolution UNDONE!:
http://sourceforge.net/sflogo.php?group_id=comics-grabber&type=1
This HTML fails validation as 4.01 transitional.
David Crossley adds:
There is a demonstration of the problem in the document
src/documentation/content/xdocs/docs/dreams.xml
The ampersand in the link element text is properly handled but
the ampersand in the link href attribute is not.
