All,
It has been pointed out that the syntax did not provide any mechanism for
allowing quotes within a quoted string. I have modified the draft to allow
'\'-escaping for any character (specifically '\' and '"') within a string
value.
Revised syntax productions are:
string = DQUOTE *( str-char / esc-pair ) DQUOTE
; quoted string of SP and VCHAR without DQUOTE
str-char = ( %x20-21 / %x23-5B / %x5D-7E )
; any of SP or VCHAR without DQUOTE or '\'
esc-pair = "\" any-char
any-char = ( SP / VCHAR )
This is the only last-call change (so far) that is not simply an editorial
clarification.
