XPath Grammar

2003-06-03 12:12:26
I need help about XPath grammar.
In W3C specification a literal is stated as the
following:

[29]    Literal    ::=    '"' [^"]* '"'  
                        | "'" [^']* "'" 


What does the production mean?
I think it can be translated as the following:
                        "\"" (~["\""])* "\""
                |       "'"  (~["'"] )* "'"  

but what [^"]* exactly mean?


Thanks in advance.
