Should the string include the brackets? Should it be null > if there is no internal subset? It doesn't look like there was ever a response to this, so I'm reporting on what I did. What I'd like is a clarification in the recommendation regarding the indended value for the DocumentType.internalSubset attribute when there is an internal subset. In my implementation, I set the attribute to be exactly the text between the '[' and ']' characters that mark the internal subset -- this corresponds exactly to the portion of the doctypedecl production given as: (markupdecl | DeclSep)* Do other implementations that support this attribute do it this way? Was this the intended value? Thanks! -Fred -- Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake at acm.org> PythonLabs at Digital Creations
