Default XML Compliance (Crossposting)

The EQUI files (SIDL language) is NOT compliant to the XML standards. Because of this, you may not embed <![CDATA[ ]]> elements and the like into definitions to define text for your mods.

You also cannot include references to other XML files through the standard means (something that is standard in XML).

I think that VI should consider updating their "XML" parser to a SAX compliant version. The following URL is a valuable resource and provides a FREE and open source library for implementing compliant parsers (http://www.saxproject.org/).

Verant should also publish a DTD for SIDL so that skins can be made with greater ease and efficiency and less error.
