Title: DOT2GXL
Submitter: Laurent Cocea
Date: 06 Jan 2004
Subsys: dot2gxl
Version: 1.10
System: *-*-*
Severity: minor
Problem:
The DOT2GXL output appears to be invalid as per Alexander Kaczmarek's gxlvalidator 1.0 available at

http://www.uni-koblenz.de/FB4/Contrib/GUPRO/Site/Downloads/index_html?project=gxl.

The XML parser error is:


  "The values for attribute 'id' must be names or name tokens".

This also happens when I insert the new line


  <!DOCTYPE gxl SYSTEM "http://www.gupro.de/GXL/gxl-1.0.dtd">

after <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>. Am I missing something?
Fix:
The original implementation did not make sure that graph element id's, of XML type ID, are legal XML names. This has now been added.
