Apparently a colon within a string causes some issues when generating a XMLElement.

Didn't find anything in Maple Help about that though.

with(XMLTools)

dummy := "NS-EN 1995-1-1, part 1-1, Section 6"

"NS-EN 1995-1-1, part 1-1, Section 6"

 (1)

XMLElement(dummy)

_XML_Element(_XML_ElementType("NS-EN 1995-1-1, part 1-1, Section 6"), [], [])

 (2)

dummy1 := "NS-EN 1995-1-1, part 1-1, Section 6: Ultimate"

"NS-EN 1995-1-1, part 1-1, Section 6: Ultimate"

 (3)

XMLElement(dummy1)

Error, (in XMLTools:-XMLElement) element tag name `NS-EN 1995-1-1, part 1-1, Section 6: Ultimate' contains the namespace prefix `NS-EN 1995-1-1, part 1-1, Section 6', but there is no `xmlns' attribute
