unindexible Chars?

[Charles Wardell <ch...@bcsolution.com>]

Once and awhile, my post.jar seems to fail on commit. Durring the commit process, I have gotten a few errors. One is that EOF character found, and another is that semicolon expected after &the. I also have come across a > was expected.

So my question is what characters do I need to strip out of the source text to ensure all posts are sucessful?

One side note. I have placed the text fields within <![CDATA[ ]] before adding the document.

Thanks,
Charlie

The usual, it _must_ be valid XML.

That's not a bad idea, then at least nothing bad can happen with the data 
embedded in the element. Usually these errors indicate invalid XML.

Try xmllint with some XML body giving errors.
