Jim,
I ultimately abandoned NSXMLParser altogether because of this and
similar issues. I now have a new XML class that I've built on top of
libXML. It's a workable solution, but at this point it is very
immature. NSXMLParser strikes me as a half implemented feature that
wasn't implemented to meet a specific need but more to fulfill a
'Feature Request' without much attention to details, it works fine for
valid syntax XML files, but for anything more robust, it just isn't
there.
I spent some time on SourceForge a little earlier today evaluating the
idea of taking my foundation and making an open source framework for
robust XML and XSLT handling, using libXML and libXSLT as a base layer,
until such time as they either don't suit the need any more.

Does anyone have experience using NSXMLParser? Are these just bugs?
(In which case I'll file a bug report.) Or am I using the class
incorrectly?
I have some VERY old code on my .Mac Public folder (.Mac user
donbriggs).
Look for XMLChecker.dmg.
It's TextEdit with some hooks to the XML stuff for parsing.
I just recompiled it, and it seems still to highlight the line of an
XML error.
Open source.
Enjoy.
Thanks Don. Your sample is using the CFXMLParser which works ok for
me. If I build on top of NSXMLParser (different core?) I run into the
problems mentioned.
