What are the types of tokens in XML documents? Leaving aside the DTD stuff, I think these are the types of tokens in XML documents:
1. The '<' character
2. The '>' character
3. Empty element terminator "/>"
4. End tag start </
5. Element name
6. Attribute name
7. The '=' character
8. Attribute value delimited by quote characters
9. Attribute value delimited by apostrophe characters
10. Text data
11. Processing instruction <?...?>
12. Entity &...;
13. Character decimal entity &#..;
14. Character hexadecimal entity &#x...;
15. CDATA section <![CDATA[ ... ]]>

This should cover mostly all XML token types, I guess.
Nice work.
