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 '&amp;' instead.

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

Googles Web Toolkit (GWT)

I followed the instructions to install gwt, and did a "ant build". However, I got the following exceptions:

     [java] Compiling module com.google.gwt.sample.mail.Mail
     [java] #
     [java] # An unexpected error has been detected by Java Runtime Environment:
     [java] #
     [java] # SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x0625665c, pid=7535, tid=2690198416
     [java] #
     [java] # Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (10.0-b23 mixed mode linux-x86)
     [java] # Problematic frame:
     [java] # V [libjvm.so+0x25665c]

I searched all through the internet, but to no avail.

I spent hours dealing with this problem, only to find out the solution was:

"sudo ant build"

Only super users can compile gwt! Dunno why have such stupid requirement.

Thinking that GWT does not support Linux, those Google programmers must be using Windows only...

The Japanese does not admit the Nanjing Massacre in 1937, neither does the Turks (formerly the Ottoman) admit the genocide of the Armenians in 1915. Their reasons are the same: why admit their grandfathers faults for something that (in their minds) did not happen.

Events recur under the sun, that is, the world we live in.

Drop in interest rates, rise in bonds and deflation should be the matter of these few years.

Rise in interest rates, collapse of bonds and high inflation (hyperinflation some called for) should be the aftermath after these few years.
