Summary: illegal parameter entity reference

Initial Comment:
Hi folks,
this is the error msg from the example prog outline
when feeded with the following xml-file:

<?xml version="1.0"  encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE title [
  <!ENTITY % inline "(#PCDATA|em|b|a|img|br)*">
  <!ELEMENT title (%inline;) >    <!-- error !! -->

]>
<title>Oha</title>

->
Parse error at line 4:
illegal parameter entity reference

Why ?? 

(I'm using expat.1.95.1 on Linux)

The previous comment is right.  XML is much stricter about
PEs than SGML.  Closing this report.

expat is right. Your example document isn't wellformed XML.

See xml recommendation 2.8: Well-Formedness Constraint: PEs
in Internal Subset
