EncodeName(String)	Converts the name to a valid XML name.
EncodeNmToken(String)	Verifies the name is valid according to the XML specification.
IsNCNameChar(Char)	Checks whether the passed-in character is a valid non-colon character type.
IsPublicIdChar(Char)	Returns the passed-in character instance if the character in the argument is a valid public id character, otherwise null.
IsStartNCNameChar(Char)	Checks if the passed-in character is a valid Start Name Character type.
IsWhitespaceChar(Char)	Checks if the passed-in character is a valid XML whitespace character.
IsXmlChar(Char)	Checks if the passed-in character is a valid XML character.
