    Parameter Entity Example in a DTD

    Suppose you define the invoice parameter entity as an internal entity as follows:

    <!ENTITY % customer "name, street, city, state, zipcode">

    The percent sign (%) after the ENTITY keyword indicates that this is a parameter entity. Later in the DTD, you can reference this parameter entity as follows:

    <!ELEMENT invoice (%customer;, item, price, date)>

    When this DTD is processed, it is as if you had specified the following:

    <!ELEMENT invoice (name, street, city, state, zipcode, item, price, date)>
