Summary: parser cannot handle a comment containing a double dash
Initial Comment:
when attempting to parse a comment containing a double dash, the parser throws an exception stating that the double dash is not well formed:
import xml.parsers.expat
p = xml.parsers.expat.ParserCreate()
p.Parse('<!-- -- -->')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test-expat.py", line 3, in ?
p.Parse('<!-- -- -->')
xml.parsers.expat.ExpatError: not well-formed (invalid token): line 1, column 7
I'm using version 1.1, which shipped with python 2.4
