The entity name must immediately follow the '&' in the entity reference.

Problem:
"The entity name must immediately follow the '&' in the entity reference." This occurs mainly when adding javascripts to an JSF document.

Cause:
JSF documents adheres to the XML standard. '&' is not allowed.

Solution:
Use '&' instead.

Example:
bValid = bValid && checkLength(name,"username",3,16);
change to:
bValid = bValid && checkLength(name,"username",3,16);



In addition, the usage of the sign '>' javascripts embedded in JSF documents causes the JSF document to add a newline automatically, e.g.

(JSF)
<script type="text/javascript">
modifyDialogStr += '      <td><label for="symbol">Symbol</label></td>\n';
</script>

causes the web container to output to browser:
<script type="text/javascript">
modifyDialogStr += '      <td><label for="symbol">Symbol</label></td>
'\n;
</script>

The newline added automatically after the > causes a "unterminated string literal'.

Solution:
use &gt; and &lt;

modifyDialogStr += '      &lt;td&gt;&lt;label for="symbol"&gt;Symbol&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/td&gt;


This is a cost for such XML standardization. Readability is greatly reduced.

Standardization has a cost.

According to the most recent estimate by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, made in 2002, there were nearly sixteen billion chickens in the world. The estimate at that time was 15,853,900,000 Chicken population. The figures from the Global Livestock Production and Health Atlas for 2004 were as follows:

1. China (8,860,000,000)
