Expat not parsing this Tag

 
 
Hi,
I am facing a problem while parsing one xml document, which has a tag
like this-
<delete-evt
nselecing="a-list[@name="friends"]/point[@myip="[email protected]"]"></
delete-evt>
Expat is exiting as soon as it visits this tag. Giving the error code to
be "not well-formed". 
 
If I change the same tag as this (after removing the internal quotes)-
<delete-evt
nselecing="a-list[@name=friends]/point[@[email protected]]"></
delete-evt>
the expat has no problem in parsing the above changed Tag.
 
I will be thankful for any solution that will allow me to parse the Tag
in its first original form.
 
Thanks Ajit
