I'm not sure if I understand. Is this something like declaring a namespace, or a DOCTYPE declaration in HTML, or otherwise giving a reference to the syntax, or is there a seperate issue? Certainly in the use of various XML beasties this is important, and I suspect rates a checkpoint or even a guideline. Would you care to elaborate for us?

Key one for XML. Give us the DTD with the document. I only know of one tool that gens the DTD from the document, and its not open source. regards, DaveP --Charles McCathieNevile mailto:charles@w3.org phone: +1 617 258 0992 http://purl.oclc.org/net/charles W3C Web Accessibility Initiative http://www.w3.org/WAI MIT/LCS - 545 Technology sq., Cambridge MA, 02139, USA
