[OT] Using entity parameters in DTD

[Luis Miguel Morillas]

I have got this example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE example [
<!ENTITY % pcd "(#PCDATA)">
<!ENTITY % rgb "(red | green | blue)">
<!ELEMENT example (spot, (%rgb;)+)>
<!ELEMENT red %pcd;>
<!ELEMENT green %pcd;>
<!ELEMENT blue %pcd;>
<!ELEMENT spot %pcd;>
<!ATTLIST spot color %rgb; #IMPLIED>
]>

<example>
<spot color="red">A red spot.</spot>
<blue>153</blue>
<green>255</green>
</example>

I can't parse with amara nor validate with xmllint, but it parses ok
if I put it as an external DTD. I can't find what's wrong in it :-/

Oops. Sorry; I had planned to get back to this.

The internal subset is limited. There are a variety of things you can do in the external subset and *not* in the internal subset, including using parameter entities for a partial declaration.
