Let me think about that. Part of the problem here is that namespaces were introduced after the XML spec, so you get into odd situations where DTD behavior is non-namespace-aware but later layers *are* namespace aware. So I think I may be wrong; the inclusion -- because external entities are defined by the XML spec rather than XML-plus-namespaces -- probably should have occurred syntactically, and probably should have picked up the namespace context at the point where you brought it in. Interesting. I need to dig into this one more deeply to really convince myself, and I should try it in a parser I trust to see what it thinks should happen. Which parser are you using? -- Joe Kesselman / Beware the fury of a patient man. -- John Dryden | ||||||
