So I've encountered a strange behavior that I'm hoping someone can fill me in on. i've written a simple handler that works with one small exception, when the parser encounters a line with '&' in it, it only returns the portion that follows the occurence.
For example, parsing a file with the line : <key>mykey</key><value>some%20&%20value</value> results in getting "%20value" back from the characters method, rather than "some%20&%20value". After looking into this a bit, I found that SAX supports entities and that it is probably believing the & to be an entity and processing it in some way that i'm unware of. I'm using the default EntityResolver. Any help/info would be much appreciated. gh -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
