But given what the spec says (and I forget the arguments for >it), we can go ahead with dropping the <XSLT> element. Ok, the actual element type in the dsig namespace has now been removed from the spec, dtd, and xsd, though the text still reads: http://www.w3.org/Signature/Drafts/xmldsig-core/Overview.html#sec-XSLT The normative specification for XSL Transformations is [XSLT]. The XSL style sheet or transform to be evaluated appears as the character content of a transform parameter child element named XSLT. The root element of a XSLT style sheet within a Transform element should SHOULD be a namespace qualified <stylesheet> element. __ Joseph Reagle Jr. http://www.w3.org/People/Reagle/ W3C Policy Analyst mailto:reagle@w3.org IETF/W3C XML-Signature Co-Chair http://www.w3.org/Signature W3C XML Encryption Chair http://www.w3.org/Encryption/2001/
