RE: Re: [xsl] List of illegal characters for element, attribute, and variable names.

Well, that's an eye-opener! I must apologize for my parochial, 
English-language, Latin alphabet, ASCII viewpoint. I hadn't considered the 
difficulty of producing a list of prohibited characters in a world where many, 
many alphabets are in use, not to mention those languages written in scripts 
where there are a mixture of syllabic and phonemic symbols. Just thinking of 
producing a list for languages written in ideographic scripts is starting to 
give me a headache.

So let me re-phrase. Where can I find a list of prohibited English-language 
script characters?

I saw both of them, but I must confess that I am unable to extract a list of 
prohibited characters from either.
