xml-copy-editor-users Mailing List for XML Copy Editor

I have got a big xml file and at the end an attribute with more that 
2000 characters.

When running an xpath query I got meaningless failure message "XPath can 
not ... Error at line 5764421, column 52: Extra content at the end of 
the document".

Wellformedness passes and there is no problem with the attributes text. 
When I shorten the attributes text, I still get the failure with varying 
column numbers (even in spaced before the attribute) until I shorten it 
to less than about 400 characters. Below a certain number the xpath 
expression works.

I exchanged all characters by an "a" but the behavior did not change.

Did you have an idea what could be wrong on my side if this is not a bug?

Otherwise: how to get project permission to flag this as a bug?

Kind Regards
