http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3083 ------- Comment #2 from mike@saxonica.com 2006-06-15 19:15 ------- An update on this. Following discussion at a WG telcon, I decided to anticipate a formal WG decision on this issue by including a potential resolution in the 8 June draft. This resolution had been discussed but had not yet been agreed. The draft includes a note (in J2.4: search for 3083) saying that this resolution is provisional. The places affected by the change can be found by searching for the word "inapplicable". The proposed resolution is that serialization properties that are inapplicable to the selected output method are ignored, except that the processor may (optionally) validate their values. The reason this resolution was favoured in discussion is that there are many ways output properties can be overridden: not only via import precedence as discussed in comment #1, but also via xsl:result-document, and perhaps via an API. If the user chooses to override output method XHTML by HTML say, then it seems to make sense for other properties that aren't relevant to HTML to be simply ignored. The WG has not yet made a formal decision on this proposal.
