Description Nek Caw 2006-11-15 13:48:28 UTC 
The XML 1.0 specification (section 2.3 and Appendix B) allow the use of a fullstop inside a tag. 

Attached is a patch to allow that in the XML syntax highlighting.

Carey: thanks for the patch.

Is the use of a fullstop allowed inside an attribute name?

reopening and reassigning to muntyan on his request. xml.lang 2.0 needs to get this fixed.

Checked, new engine allows . in tag names.
