since the schema won’t allow nested XML within the value (that is, no complex
properties.) Consequently, the “<” and “>” characters are escaped as
&lt; and &gt;. In general, if the first non-whitespace characters in
the value are “&lt;” and the last non-whitespace characters are “&gt;”
you should “unescape” the contents of the value, expanding the entities found. (The
check guards against the eventuality that the schema will someday allow nested
XML elements, in which case the string will begin with “<” and end with “>”
and should not be unescaped.)<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

attributes west, south, east, north, and these need to be mapped to the
attributes required by each respective WMS / WFS version’s bounding box elements.
For most cases, there’s a 1:1 mapping, but some (very few) SRSs define a transposed
x and y, so those have to be handled differently.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
