Authentication Options in Xindice
Hello there,
Could somebody let me know if there are any authentication options for
Xindice? I'm looking for a simple username/password authentication
system that will disallow access to any unauthorized users.
Thanks!

Since it is XML, usually use &&. Or put it in a CDATA which means it
will be ignored. The problem is that the XML parsers see the & and try
and interpret it. For instance, < is "<" and > is ">". So when the
parser sees the "&" it is looking for another character right after it to
interpret. Think that is bad, try embedding <mydata> in you XML,
it should come back as a malformed document also, it has no
end tag </mydata>. If you specify CDATA, then the parser ignores
everything in the CDATA Tag.

Try using the escape character &
Researching escape characters in xml is a good to start....

The ampersand isn't a legal character in XML because it is used by
entities. Use &.

Store "&" - Ampersand in Xindice

Hello,
I got a problem to store documents containing the sign for and: the
Ampersand (&) in Xindice.
You can evaluate this in the online demo of the addressbook example at:
http://www.dbxml.org/Addressbook/servlet/Task?action=addform
The error message is: Collection document malformed.
Does anyone know a work-around?
