      Trying to compare two versions of a page will end up with a SAXParseException if one of the page node contains two dashes "--" in the node name.

      Reproduce

      • Create a page
      • Publish the page to create v1.0
      • Rename the page to have two dashes in the node name. 
        /travel/about --> /travel/about--us
      • Publish the page to create v1.1

      Expected
      An html diff representation is generated from v1.0 and v1.1

      Actual
      A 500 error is thrown from a parse exception:

      [Fatal Error] :2:55: The string "--" is not permitted within comments.

      Notes
      The problem occurs because on the author instance we embed comments into the html source to identify content and templates.

      <!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<!-- cms:page content="website:/travel/about--us" dialog="mte:pages/pageProperties" -->
<!-- /cms:page -->

      For the diff it's probably not required we do this.
