Well that's not quite right; since he is defining a subset, any XML-reading tools should work fine; there might be problems with XML-writing tools, but a minor post-processing edit seems likely to clean that up. That's quite different, say, from an earlier discussion on this list where someone replaced the equal sign in attributes with a marker indicating the datatype, as in "price$'50'" or something like that. Life's not fair. In the early SOAP days, people complained because the spec outlawed DTD's. Once all the "bigco's" got on board, it seemed to have stopped becoming an issue. /r$ -- STSM Senior Security Architect DataPower SOA Appliances | ||||||
