You tried to feed me invalid XML?

Hmm. The problem I'm half-remembering probably involved one of:
- The XML generator not having the option to set an encoding, and/or
- IE rejecting XML that didn't pass its own parser regardless of whether the AJAX client could parse it

So long as it says what it is using, it shouldn't matter.IE rejecting XML that didn't pass its own parser regardless of whether the AJAX client could parse it
Very believable.

That's useful to know, but what I was seeing was the context of text nodes, as in the (edited) OP.
I don't care what in particular the vendor does, I just want them to produce XML that will parse without me having to sanitize it.

No need for a comma there grammatically

Well, the problem seems to be that | by the time he can(verb? no) all the ampersands (object to verb can? no) | have been parsed out (oh.... go back and parse again) so there's no way to know what was an entity.
Well, the problem seems to be that by the time he can (implied verb to helping verb can), all the ampersands have been parsed out, so there's no way to know what was an entity.
As you can see, you've implied the helping verb, which makes it harder to parse.
You have to read the full sentence in order to parse.While a comma isn't required, it would help interpret the phrases faster.
Well, the problem seems to be that, by the time he can, all the ampersands have been parsed out, so there's no way to know what was an entity.
Of course, the whole phrase is needlessly complex.
He can no longer know what was an entity, because all the ampersands have already been parsed out.

While a comma isn't required,
If it is, just make sure you don't use an HTML entity, or we might wind up with a recursive problem.

Unfortunately, you weren't a dickweed with this comment so no and yeah, I missed that that entire phrase can be taken out and thus, should be surrounded by commas.
