Thanks for your report. Alas, according to the W3C XML 1.0 specification: "For compatibility, the string " -- " (double-hyphen) MUST NOT occur within comments." So, it appears minidom (and other XML parsers) are correct in rejecting your example as not well-formed XML. http://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#sec-comments |
