Re: built in entity

You only *have* to use the &gt; entity in the sequence ]]> when it
appears in element content. It's a bit like the fact that you only
have to use &quot; when you want a double quote within an attribute
value and you're using double quotes to delimit the attribute value.
You can use it at other times if you want, but there's no need.

Cheers,

Jeni
