Thanks, I wrote a very rudimentary function that simply strips @ and &. I am sure its not quite that simple but for the html fragments I am dealing with it seems to be enough.<div><br></div><div>-pp</div><div><br><div> <br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Jul 25, 2010 at 5:21 PM, Neil Van Dyke <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:neil@neilvandyke.org">neil@neilvandyke.org</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"> Pedro Pinto wrote at 07/25/2010 11:04 AM:<div class="im"><br> <br> > I am using neil/htmlprag to generate sxml and lizorkin/sxml to manipulate it.

I've actually found only one nontrivial difference between SXML and xexprs, and I don't think that difference is worth fragmenting the base of libraries over, nor worth the increased bugs as programmers intermix both formats in their code. (I did most of this library and spec work last year, but it needs polishing up and be reviewed by SXML and PLT people, so that the spec is fairly stable before anyone starts depending on it. I've also committed to doing a couple SRFIs on the spec and libraries.)<br> <font color="#888888"> <br> -- <br> <a href="http://www.neilvandyke.org/" target="_blank">http://www.neilvandyke.org/</a><br> </font></blockquote></div><br></div></div>
