[x3d-public] ProtoInstance problem in VRML97, ClassicVRML conversions fixed

[Don Brutzman]

Found and fixed a longstanding undetected error in the X3D to (Classic) VRML conversion spreadsheet: prototype instances mistakenly had their name repeated as a field.

Example scene:

http://x3dgraphics.com/examples/X3dForWebAuthors/KelpForestExhibit/CircleFishPrototype.x3dv
http://x3dgraphics.com/examples/X3dForWebAuthors/KelpForestExhibit/CircleFishPrototype.wrl

original source .x3d excerpt:

	<ProtoInstance name='CircleFish'/>

mistakenly/inadvertently translated as:

  CircleFish {
     name "CircleFish "
}


now correctly translated as:

  CircleFish {
}

Please update any local archives you might have.

Trouble reports with VRML97/ClassicVRML test suite examples and conversions are always welcome.  We don't have a validator for these, so issues are welcome.

Have fun with VRML97 and ClassicVRML prototypes!  8)

all the best, Don
