--- Comment #2 from Henry Zongaro <zongaro@ca.ibm.com>  2009-11-26 20:54:33 ---
At its call of 2009-11-12,[3] the XSL WG observed that the response proposed in
comment #1 did not address the question of whether "HTML rules" referred to the
rules of the HTML output method or the rules of one of the HTML
Recommendations.  The consensus was that this referred to the rules of the
output method.  The following changes were proposed and accepted during the
call:

. In Section 4, bullet 3.a.iii, change "escape according to HTML rules any
characters (such as < and &) where HTML requires escaping" to
"escape according to the rules of the XML or HTML output method, whichever is
applicable, any characters that require escaping"

. In Section 4, bullet 3.e, change "escape according to XML or HTML rules" to
"escape according to the rules of the XML or HTML output method, whichever is
applicable,"


Ratification of this decision by the XQuery Working Group is pending.
